Leader of the Liberal Democrats Vince Cable has today slammed the Tory Government’s decision to expand Heathrow as an “expensive folly”. He said:

“Expansion at Heathrow is an expensive folly that will badly hurt the environment both locally and globally.

“The Liberal Democrats will work with Heathrow’s many and diverse political opponents within Parliament to finally put an end to this project once and for all.”

Harrow Liberal Democrats have been clear in opposing expansion of Heathrow, which is likely to lead to an increase in noise — including at night — across Harrow.
