Lib Dems say "Enough is enough at Heathrow"
Sat 26th Jan 2008
The government says that there are economic benefits associated with allowing Heathrow to continue to expand. Britain is the world's second largest exporter of services and the financial services industry uses 6 times more air travel than other businesses. The government says that 70% of foreign investment wants to, and does, locate within one hour of Heathrow. Allowing Heathrow to expand would create another 10000 jobs.

"Liberalism in Britain has lost a great champion, the Liberal Democrats, a great advocate and our public life, a great servant. "
Lord Paddy Ashdown
In memory of Lord Richard Holme, who died on 5 May
"If the Tories want to claim that they are going to cut corporation tax, they have to come clean about how they are going to pay for it. Cutting the main rate of corporation tax to 25% will cost more than £5bn a year. If David Cameron is to have a hope of sounding credible he must state clearly where the money will come from. Otherwise this will be seen as yet another unfunded tax cut. "
