Boris: 'Totally wrong' to expand Heathrow
– Boris Johnson, London MayorOn aviation, I've made it clear many times, I don't think Heathrow represents the answer. I think the Prime Minister understands that. I think it would be totally wrong to expand an airport slap-bang in the middle of London's western suburbs.
It would have very damaging environmental effects and even if you were to put in a third runway it would rapidly run out of usefulness.
It would not serve London's needs in the long term. You need a bolder solution and that's the one that we're advocating.

David Cameron has been challenged by senior backbencher Tim Yeo to show whether he's a man or a mouse over expansion at Heathrow.
