Expanding Gatwick will be a disaster for communities. @theCCCuk advised that UK passenger numbers should not increase more than 2% by 2035. This expansion will contribute to a 14% rise in UK passenger numbers. Read AEF’s full statement below.

The decision to grant Gatwick’s expansion goes against the government’s own planning inspectors. It fails on climate, and will create extra air + noise pollution for thousands of people surrounding the airport. 1/5
