Default Government backs Heathrow Airport expansion

This has been going on for 50 years or more.

https://news.sky.com/story/live-gove...ision-11395521

[Key points:

Government backs third runway at Heathrow
MPs to be given vote by early July
Group of Tories and key Labour figures opposed to expansion
Boris Johnson vowed to 'lie down in front of bulldozers']

Boris said that back in 2016

[Labours John McDonnell MP :
So that my constituents are fully aware I remain implacably opposed to expansion
at Heathrow and after listening to the transport minister, Chris Grayling,
today I am even more convinced that this would be a costly,
environmental and social disaster that will never be built.]


Will they get the vote through?
depends on if the amount of Labour MP's back it,
enough. Reports are saying.
