Greenpeace have bought a piece of land slap bang in the middle of the proposed third runway site at Heathrow. We're not going to let the runway be built and we need your help.

  • theoretically, this plan is good, because the council would have to obtain cumpolsory purchase orders for each plot, but actually, they could just make it anyway and not bother, if you tried to take them to court, you would have to do so for each individual plot, and fight each case separately, which would cost a lotta money. im against this runway too, but i thought id just point out these flaws.

  • When the government applies for a compulsory purchase order robin429, there has to be a court hearing, in which they get to explain why they need the land so badly. But the owner of the land in question also gets to put their side of the story, so we (that's all 39,000 Airplotters so far) will be able to fight the sale on the grounds that saving ourselves from catastrophic climate change is more urgent that increasing the profits of BAA and British airways.

    Economy depends on ecology. It might not be obvious now for all but it will soon if we keep pushing the boundaries too far...And more important than economy, life itself.

  • @jotton123 you think money is more important than life itself, makes no sense

  • Well the majority do want airport expansion thank you very much and that is what will happen.

  • Whoever came up with this idea clearly has no idea about life, or how the planet works.

    What about all the jobs this new runway will bring to the dismal economy? Or are you happy to protest this matter, at the expensive of hundreds of people?

    Grow up.

  • @Slixr I know you postedt his here a while back. Did you watch the news last friday perchance? XD

  • I'd love to see them try that with the proposed airport in the thames estuary. HA!

  • i'm totally behind greenpeace on this one.. in this they only mension carbon emissions, they shuld have mensioned noise pollution, because the people who live just out side sippton there going to suffer with more noise. if i was aloud to i would buy a bit of the land to but the parents won't let me.XD
