How can a Government that lectures us to use low energy bulbs and reduce our "Carbon Footprint" and lectures other countries on the use of fossil fuels justify building a third runway at Heathrow?

Because by the time they have finished lecturing us they all need a holiday |

The planes have to fly in and out of somewhere, and we might as well benefit from it.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

and how can you take the protestors seriously when they advocate looking after the enviroment but quite happily assault a fellow human being?

I thought it was pretty sick that the protesters had young kids on the front row.

There seems to be a hardcore of protesters that will show up at anything. How about get a job, pay some taxes.

Good to live in a democracy that actually allows peaceful protest though, even if I disagree with them.

I don't, I think a lot of them just turn up for a scrap with the police, some of them run up quite a few Air Miles too. The people who live in the villages that would be flattened to make way seemed to have heir protest hijacked but their protest has been sullied by the usual Rent-a-Mob climate change protestors. |

the airlines are working of reducing emissions also the 3rd runway will help reduce unnessary emissions as planes landing wont need to circle around for 30 minutes while they wait for a slot

A poker forum somewhere is discussing climate change, and they maybe wouldn't if the protest hadn't been on........
Job done.
I have just realised that I won't be around when the climate change damage happens. Where's me airmiles?
Heathrow is unsafe without a new runway, if they keep present traffic levels.....
Also, it is environmentally friendly to use as much of the local Middx environment as possible. Please build at will. Especially at Feltham.

My friend's house in Feltham is directly under the flight-path of heathrow - and his house is still worth a lot more than mine. Although mine is in Tamworth. Why do people want to live there (Feltham, not Tamworth)? |
