We've had a new government for less than 24 hours, and despite not yet having a Secretary of State for Transport at the time of writing, the Tories and the Liberal Democrats have gone ahead and done what they both promised they would do - they've cancelled the project to build a third runway at Heathrow!
Not only that, they've also announced that they will refuse permission to build additional runways at Gatwick and Stansted.
I have to make it plain that I don't want this government and the thought of what they might do to our environment fills me with dread. But I'll allow them a small whoop for the runway decision...
...before the cynical part of me says "Yeah, but what about all the smaller airports?"
