Gatwick second runway
The government has signalled that plans to bring a second runway at Gatwick into regular use will get the green light if environmental conditions are met. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander said she was “minded to approve” the airport’s plans, but the deadline for a decision has now been pushed back until the end of October. The main stumbling blocks facing Gatwick’s proposals are related to its provisions for noise prevention and public transport. The Planning Inspectorate had made recommendations in those two areas after initially rejecting the scheme. The airport welcomed the government’s statement but did not say whether it […]Read more...

In a letter to the prime minister, Dodds said the cuts to international aid, announced earlier this week to fund an increase in defence spending, would “remove food and healthcare from desperate people – deeply harming the UK’s reputation”. She told Sir Keir Starmer she had delayed her resignation until after his meeting with President Trump, saying it was “imperative that you had a united cabinet behind you as you set off for Washington”. The MP said it was with “sadness” that she was […]Read more...

Victims of second
Victims of ‘Capture’, a second faulty Post Office accounting system, say their redress scheme may not be in place until the autumn. Former sub-postmasters and their relatives met with government representatives for an update on compensation. While lawyers describe “positive steps”, some victims have told Sky News that they are disappointed with the timescale and described coming up against the “grinding wheels of bureaucracy”. Capture software was an accounting system rolled out in Post Office branches between 1992 and 1999 and was likely to have caused false shortfalls. It was the predecessor to Horizon, which led to hundreds of sub-postmasters being wrongly […]Read more...
