Commenting on the Supreme Court’s decision on Heathrow Airport, Jasmine Whitbread, Chief Executive of London First, said:
“This ruling should mark the definitive end of any debate about the expansion of Heathrow airport. This project is an essential piece of the Global Britain jigsaw and it has been repeatedly endorsed by businesses, employees, trades unions, and MPs right across the country.
“Having left the European Union, our international connections will only become more important as we look to attract trade, talent, and tourism. This ruling reasserts the UK as a reliable partner and a sound place for international investors to do business.
“Critical infrastructure projects like this will be a fundamental part of the post-Covid recovery, ensuring a strong economic future for the UK and generations to come.”
