Heathrow consultation: Heathrow Airport have launched their own consultation today on their expansion plans. They’ve promised economic growth. But as I told Parliament last week, the economic case for Heathrow has collapsed.
ReFuelEU requires fuel producers - dominated by ‘Big Oil’ - to deliver more alternative aviation fuel. Instead of investing in it, they're trying to weaken it.
Sign the petition today and tell policymakers to keep Big Oil out of our skies #FuelledByGreed

When many AEF members report to us that airport noise complaints systems are ineffective, it is disappointing to hear Keir Mather, minister for aviation, say that an independent ombudsman would duplicate complaint and appeal arrangements. 1/3

For more information on why an independent ombudsman would help communities impacted by aircraft noise, check out the campaign below. 2/3 aef.org.uk/2026/10/06/indepe…
Noise pollution isn’t just annoying, it can have serious health impacts. The Government is currently ignoring its own research into the topic as UK policy continues to lag behind WHO recommendations. 3/3

@johnmcdonnellMP Please put your name to the amendment to CA Bill for an indpt ombudsman to oversee airspace change put forward by #JohnMilneMP NC1 It has nothing to do with new runways but scrutiny of a process & hope for residents Thank you Details cagne.org

The economic case for Heathrow expansion has collapsed: I spoke to LBC about why a third runway no longer makes good financial sense.

Why are fuels based on crops as a feedstock not a good alternative to kerosene? 🛬
They harm food security, risk deforestation and, according to @WorldResources, could actually INCREASE aviation emissions rather than cut them. 1/2

A reminder that expansion at Heathrow threatens the health benefits already being enjoyed by communities in West London, following the very real recent successes in reducing air pollution.

Is Dublin Airport doing enough to protect local communities from air pollution?
Vague promises, patchy air pollution sensors, the omission of pollutants such as PM10 and PM2.5 from other monitoring sites.
And now an increase in flight numbers.

Does the UK Government take aircraft noise pollution seriously enough?
The DfT has lowered the altitude at which flightpaths prioritise noise reduction, trading it for undefined efficiency and emissions savings. Read more 👇

Energy bills are rising.
Food costs are soaring.
And yet the government wants to spend billions expanding Heathrow when its own research shows it will have a negative economic impact.
Read that again.

Between now and November is the key period to let your MP know you oppose Heathrow expansion. @friends_earth have created a template to make the process as quick and simple as possible. 1/2

Confused about why Heathrow expansion is such a bad idea?
Take a look at AEF’s breakdown of the key issues and why, on every level, a third runway at Heathrow is bad for the economy, air quality and for local communities. 2/2
