After decades we should be getting the Heathrow expansion decision tomorrow
Whatever the political fireworks will begin
It has been an awful long time coming but we are promised that the long awaited decision on the expansion of Heathrow will come tomorrow.
It’s reported that TMay and other ministers on the airport subcommittee will meet before cabinet. It is being speculated that we could get an announcement before the markets open because it is felt that this is so politically sensitive.
Theresa May herself will make a Commons statement at 12.30.
All the signs are that the plan chosen will be one of the Heathrow options.
No doubt one of the first people to respond will the Richmond Park CON MP, Zac Goldsmith, who has threatened to resign his seat and force a by-election if LH3 goes ahead.
