Heathrow airport third runway expansion

Early day motion 715, tabled 29 January 2025 by Munira Wilson (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 33 members.

That this House regrets that the Government has indicated its support for the expansion of Heathrow airport; highlights that Heathrow is the single largest polluter in the UK and that its emissions account for over half of all UK aviation emissions; further highlights that the addition of a third runway contradicts the Government’s stated net zero targets; believes that economic growth should be balanced by environmental and health considerations; and urges the Government to reject proposals for a third runway at Heathrow.
