“It is an injustice that someone driving their car once, pays more tax on their fuel than any airline paid on their fuel. It is baffling that we have this sector that doesn’t pay any tax or VAT,” points out AEF’s @chadceleste to @ZackPolanski https://t.co/wQZDMBkt36

According to ONS, UK residents made an estimated 94.6 million visits abroad in 2024 and spent an estimated £78.6 billion. The tourist trade deficit has risen to £46.1 billion. The last thing the UK economy needs is more people jetting off abroad. @friends_earth @NoR3Coalition

The government is now considering two proposals for expanding Heathrow airport - we don’t think either of them will serve local communities or the planet. Let’s avoid another expensive HS2 style failure. Full press release below 👀 👇 https://t.co/DQa3V5Rhdd

Every parent really does need to be telling every other parent that you gotta not give em a phone till high school and have a game plan for limiting short form online video. That really is the entire ball game right now. A lot of people don’t know

Two aviation stories on the same page in today’s @thetimes: Boeing and Airbus halt green plane projects (which could mean major obstacles for Heathrow expansion) Economists, transport experts and other academics, write to Government questioning benefits of Heathrow expansion ⬇️

We've been talking about a third runway for decades, but the fundamental problem is Heathrow is surrounded on all sides by critical infrastructure that can't easily be moved, @ChadCeleste tells @SteveHReports.

It's surprising to me that a lot of people still don't know that cows make milk for their calves, not us. To get it, we forcibly impregnate them, take their babies away and milk them until their bodies fail. Then we kill them. That's how dairy farming works.

On ITV Meridian last night, @RAAN_BERKS commented on what Heathrow expansion means for many communities under Heathrow flight paths. More than 750 extra flights per day, or 276,000 per year. That's an awful lot of extra noise pollution. #heathrowexpansion

I remain opposed to a new runway at Heathrow Airport. My full response to the expansion proposals for a third runway:

We can see catastrophic wildfires and deadly floods as we breach 1.5° warming. How can @UKLabour justify bigger airports in the midst of climate breakdown? £21bn JUST for #Heathrow infrastructure is such a waste. We’ve stopped it before and will again. https://t.co/zkFX4lLGFq

The ghosts of HS2 will surely haunt any attempt to compulsory purchase 1000s homes, re-route the M25 and and undo so much good work on #airpollution #Heathrow @MumsForLungs

Feel like we've been here before?

Heathrow is submitting its plans for a 3rd runway today. It’ll mean 15,000 losing their homes, more noise for 2 million Londoners, the government missing its climate change targets & inevitably Heathrow coming for tax payer subsidies.For all these reasons,say no to the 3rd runway

Somewhat uncharted territory now. #Heathrow the ANPS does not currently allow for rival bids https://t.co/wKADCpajcp

A 43 year old man raped a 14 year old girl. The barrister says "This case is all about the temptation that she seems to have shown to this defendant three times her age. He was unable to resist this temptation and embraced it with gusto." That barrister should be struck off.
