Thames airport 'should be rejected' - MPs report

[mhm]

The government should reject the "Boris Island" Thames Estuary airport plan and expand Heathrow instead, a report by MPs has said.

Mayor of London Boris Johnson has argued for a new hub airport in the Thames Estuary.

Yet the House of Commons Transport Committee warned it would be hugely expensive.

The mayor insists London needs a new airport and the only possible place is east of London.

But the report also warned the new airport could mean the closure of Heathrow and could harm estuary wildlife
