    The history behind Heathrow’s third runway debate – and who’s against it

    Rachel Reeves delivered a landmark speech this week, promising economic growth across all regions of the UK. Speaking in Oxfordshire, the chancellor pledged a slate of new development projects – including a third runway at Heathrow Airport.

    Discussions about the expansion of London’s busiest airport date back to 2003, when its owners first sought approval for the third runway. Over 20 years later, Labour has got behind the project as the government invites proposals to be brought forward in the Summer.

    Confirming the decision in her speech, Ms Reeves said: “We cannot duck the decision any longer.”
