Heathrow (Third Runway)

Proceeding contribution from Theresa Villiers (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 28 January 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Heathrow (Third Runway).
We have set out detailed plans for the costings of our high-speed rail line. In our proposal for a high-speed rail link, we believe we have found a means of relieving Heathrow's overcrowding problems in a way that does not inflict the damage that would clearly come with runway 3. Evidence from Europe clearly shows that high-speed rail provides a viable and attractive alternative to competing flights.
