Our notorious inability to build infrastructure - meaning the upgrading of the entire M25 so that everyone to the west of London (ie almost everyone in southern England) can reach it; a REAL cross London rail link so we don't all have to change trains several times to reach it... means that even were it built it would add a day to the journey getting there.<BR/>hmmm,,,,, but maybe that would mean that my (and other) convenient, small, efficient regional airport (<30 mins from landing to walking into the house) would look towards those interesting hubs CDG and AMS and part of the LHR problem would be solved by removing some of the traffic to them?<BR/>Of course extending LHR and moving people to do it is very unpaletable...... omlets and eggs?<BR/>DDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
