Kent MP calls to scrap Gatwick expansion for a second runway despite assurances from bosses

2021-12-16 1

A Kent MP's hit out at plans for a second runway at Gatwick, saying his residents will suffer poorer air quality and added noise pollution.

A consultation's currently underway, and Tonbridge and Malling's Tom Tugendhat says it's of no benefit to the county and he'll do all he can to stop it.

However, airport bosses believe it'll boost Kent's economy as thousands of people from the South East are predicted to work there.
