Heathrow Expansion

[Halb]

Zach Goldsmith just said he will trigger a by-election if the expansion goes ahead.

One problem. In the whole scheme of things, few want to go to those places. They want to come to London and the South East. It has little to do with us Brits. wanting easier access to airports.

It's easier (less hassle) for me to get to London from Manchester than Heathrow to London. Getting from Euston to Heathrow is such a massive ballache.

Euston to Heathrow by tube takes less than an hour and involves only one change. 40 minutes by cab.

I'll take the extra 40 mins sitting in comfort sipping vodka with my cases than lugging them round London sweating on the tube. It took roughly an hour, little bit more last time I was forced to do it. It was horrible.

I suppose the downside is that one has to set off from Manchester.

All roads lead to Manchester...or so the Mesopotamians said.

I suppose it's because that London is the greatest city on the planet. No one city can match her when it comes to what that London offers in terms of homeless, smell, pickpockets, rude that Londoners, American tourists, Yardie gangsters, overpriced tat, parking fines, congestion charge, stinky tube, etc. etc.

Yes, that must be it.

EFA.

Manchester airport is so fantastically easy to get to.
If they do expand Heathrow I hope they stick in a super rail link to both the rest of the country and that London.

Another by-election!

Saw a piece of tech advertised on Fb this week which cancels out all noise around you, like a force shield.

I hope the sealed chamber Boris is locked up in has airholes.

Gatwick and Luton respectively.

So Boris is dishonest (no real surprise there) and May is too weak to sack him (no real surprise there).

she'd rather have him on the inside pissing inside, than on the outside pissing inside.
