:00:00. > :00:10.Tonight on BBC London News: Has the Mayor lost his fight for a new
:00:11. > :00:19.airport in the Thames estuary, following recommendations to expand
:00:20. > :00:23.Heathrow or Gatwick? It is not going to happen, is it?
:00:24. > :00:29.Well, you may be right in your pessimism, I can't rule that out,
:00:30. > :00:35.uncharacteristic though it would be. But it is up to us now to make the
:00:36. > :00:38.case. We'll talk to the Mayor live and
:00:39. > :00:45.look at the Heathrow recommendations in more detail. The latest proposals
:00:46. > :00:50.are for a new runway to the north`west of the airport, or an
:00:51. > :00:57.extension to the existing runway. But both would have serious
:00:58. > :00:59.logistical challenges, not least putting part of the M25 into a
:01:00. > :01:03.tunnel. We'll look at what today's report
:01:04. > :01:06.will mean for air travel in the south east.
:01:07. > :01:09.Plus a round up of the day's other news, including: The trial of two
:01:10. > :01:25.men accused of killing Lee Rigby hears the closing statements.
:01:26. > :01:28.A very good evening. It was the Mayor's bold vision for the future
:01:29. > :01:32.of aviation in the south east. Close down Heathrow, use the land to build
:01:33. > :01:36.thousands of much needed houses and create a brand new airport in the
:01:37. > :01:39.Thames Estuary. That vision hasn't been totally dismissed today, but it
:01:40. > :01:43.certainly doesn't appear to be one of the front runners. In his interim
:01:44. > :01:48.report, Sir Howard Davies earmarked Heathrow and Gatwick for possible
:01:49. > :01:52.expansion. Boris Johnson's been told his idea isn't off the table
:01:53. > :01:55.entirely, and a decision on its viability will be made in the first
:01:56. > :01:59.half of next year. We'll hear from the Mayor in a moment, but first,
:02:00. > :02:13.here's our Political Correspondent, Karl Mercer.
:02:14. > :02:19.He has had the maps out and has drawn up plans. But today it seems
:02:20. > :02:22.that Boris Johnson's ambition for an airport in or near the Thames
:02:23. > :02:25.estuary is struggling to keep its head above water. But as the mayor
:02:26. > :02:30.emerged from a lunch with medical journalist today, he was trying to
:02:31. > :02:35.put a positive spin on events. His plans have not reached the short
:02:36. > :02:38.list. Instead they will be looked at in more detail before a final
:02:39. > :02:46.decision next year. It is a good result. Do you really believe that?
:02:47. > :02:49.You have been bombed so far down the running order that it is not going
:02:50. > :02:55.to happen. Yellow map the well, you may be right in your pessimism,
:02:56. > :02:59.Karl. I can't rule that out, uncharacteristic though it would
:03:00. > :03:07.be. You might be right. But it is up to us now to make the case and I do
:03:08. > :03:11.think it is a brilliant case. It is a case he has not been shy in
:03:12. > :03:15.making. Expansion at Heathrow has been backed by the Davies commission
:03:16. > :03:22.today, but it has been the target of the mayor's vitriol for years. If I
:03:23. > :03:27.am elect did mayor in May I will campaign against the expansion of
:03:28. > :03:34.Heathrow. I want to make one final point which is relevant to this
:03:35. > :03:39.area! I will not support, in fact I will oppose a third runway! I would
:03:40. > :03:42.like to see all politicians accepting the need for expansion,
:03:43. > :03:47.which the madness, and being prepared to back the Airports
:03:48. > :03:51.Commission. And the business community needs to be able to get to
:03:52. > :03:57.and from global markets. There is an economic argument. The mail will
:03:58. > :04:02.continue to lobby for something out East, either in estuary on the Isle
:04:03. > :04:07.of Grain, where opinion is split. Most people can't believe they are
:04:08. > :04:10.even thinking about it. A hub airport in north Kent will bring
:04:11. > :04:17.untold benefits to up to half a million people when it is built in a
:04:18. > :04:20.few years' time. The mayor's fallback position was for expansion
:04:21. > :04:26.at Stansted, but that was also not on the short list, not something
:04:27. > :04:33.that worries the airport. We don't need any infrastructure changes to
:04:34. > :04:37.the airport to expand. But Sir Howard Davies highlighted the need
:04:38. > :04:41.for rail link improvements to the East in general and Stansted in
:04:42. > :04:48.particular. We are also looking at the road network. On the today's
:04:49. > :04:53.plans, Gatwick could be in line for a second runway before 2030. It is
:04:54. > :04:55.not the option the mayor is yet ready to consider.
:04:56. > :04:58.So let's remind ourselves of what's being recommended. Sir Howard Davies
:04:59. > :05:02.has told the government he favours three options to increase airport
:05:03. > :05:08.capacity. Two of them centre on Heathrow, the third on the idea of a
:05:09. > :05:12.second runway at Gatwick. Option one is a third runway at Heathrow to the
:05:13. > :05:15.north west of the airport. The second is to extend the length of
:05:16. > :05:20.Heathrow's northern runway to enable two independent runways to operate.
:05:21. > :05:24.Option three ` a new runway at Gatwick. But today's report puts
:05:25. > :05:29.Heathrow expansion back on the agenda. Our Transport Correspondent,
:05:30. > :05:41.Tom Edwards, is in Harmondsworth, an area that would be affected. Yes, we
:05:42. > :05:44.are in St Mary's church, and Heathrow primary school are getting
:05:45. > :05:49.ready for that Carol concert. This church could be demolished if the
:05:50. > :05:55.runway here goes ahead. Expansion at Heathrow is an issue that divides
:05:56. > :05:59.people here. Two people from West London, and two
:06:00. > :06:02.very different views on Heathrow expansion. Hello, can I help? At
:06:03. > :06:06.this car company in Isleworth, they employ 50 people and hundreds of
:06:07. > :06:11.drivers. They welcome the news that a third runway is now back on the
:06:12. > :06:16.table. Businesses will be ecstatic. Heathrow is the goose that laid the
:06:17. > :06:22.golden egg for this community. We have 1500 corporate customers. 90%
:06:23. > :06:28.of them are here because Heathrow is here. Geraldine Nicholson works at a
:06:29. > :06:33.local school. Expansion of the airport would leave her living on
:06:34. > :06:36.the edge of a runway. The communities are all linked. We all
:06:37. > :06:42.have children who live here who go to the various schools. All of them
:06:43. > :06:45.would be affected by noise pollution. You can't be near an
:06:46. > :06:49.airport that is going to expand and not be hit by that. Public transport
:06:50. > :06:53.will be affected, roads will be affected. It is not just about one
:06:54. > :06:58.village and people losing their homes, this is about the entire
:06:59. > :07:01.southern part of Hendon borough. `` Hillingdon borough. Harmondsworth
:07:02. > :07:05.village is one of those that could the destroyed. St Mary's church, two
:07:06. > :07:09.pubs, shops and homes would all go. The village of Sipson down the road,
:07:10. > :07:15.mostly now owned by the airport, would survive. The Heathrow control
:07:16. > :07:18.tower is a local landmark. Campaigners have already defeated
:07:19. > :07:24.one third runway that was planned for these fields here. It would have
:07:25. > :07:27.taken out the whole of the village of Sipson. The latest proposals are
:07:28. > :07:34.for a new runway to the north`west of the airport, or an extension to
:07:35. > :07:36.the existing runway. But both would have serious logistical challenges,
:07:37. > :07:44.not least putting part of the M25 into a tunnel. There are also
:07:45. > :07:51.recommendations to allow more night flights, and to use both runways at
:07:52. > :07:57.the same time if there are delays. It will be continuous and with a
:07:58. > :08:01.high standard of pressure. How will you make that pressure effective? By
:08:02. > :08:05.public meetings. The style has changed, but the sentiments haven't.
:08:06. > :08:10.The debate over expansion of airports in the south`east has been
:08:11. > :08:15.going on for generations. This was a commission that looked at it in
:08:16. > :08:21.1968. Please understand the disruption that we have all felt in
:08:22. > :08:24.terms of having our sleep disrupted. Today, any expansion at Heathrow has
:08:25. > :08:31.and will be met with a well orchestrated campaign. There will be
:08:32. > :08:35.fury in West London that a third runway is still on the agenda, that
:08:36. > :08:39.lots of people will lose their homes and even more will be under a new
:08:40. > :08:43.flight path in an area where noise is already a huge problem. I can
:08:44. > :08:47.foresee this is the beginning of a major campaign in 2014 to try and
:08:48. > :08:53.stop a third runway at Heathrow once again. Many who live here always
:08:54. > :09:01.knew that whatever anyone said, expansion would be considered again.
:09:02. > :09:09.Now, whatever happens at Heathrow, it will not please everyone.
:09:10. > :09:14.Let's speak to Councillor Keith Burrows, from Hillingdon Council.
:09:15. > :09:18.What was your reaction today to the idea that this area is under threat?
:09:19. > :09:23.We are fiercely disappointed and concerned that the Davies commission
:09:24. > :09:29.has put forward two options that will affect the whole of the area.
:09:30. > :09:34.They have put Heathrow back on the table. In terms of jobs, you concede
:09:35. > :09:41.that Heathrow is important to the area? They say it is important to
:09:42. > :09:44.the area and there are jobs, but if Heathrow was not here, there would
:09:45. > :09:53.still be the capability to create other jobs anyway. That is a bit of
:09:54. > :09:57.a red herring. It is just scaremongering. You have a lot of
:09:58. > :10:03.links to this church. What impact would it have if it had to be
:10:04. > :10:10.destroyed? If this had to be destroyed, this was where I was
:10:11. > :10:17.married in 2000. My daughter was christened here. If it came through
:10:18. > :10:20.here, it would have devastation for me personally, but also everyone who
:10:21. > :10:26.visits their loved ones in the graveyard. What now from a council
:10:27. > :10:32.point of view? The leader of the council always said that we would
:10:33. > :10:38.keep a fund available if the runway ever reappeared. As a council, we
:10:39. > :10:42.will continue to fight the third runway. We put the residents first
:10:43. > :10:51.full up long way to go with this. We can speak to the Mayor Boris
:10:52. > :10:58.Johnson, who joins us from City Hall. Good evening, or is it,
:10:59. > :11:03.because you have in putting on a brave face today, considering your
:11:04. > :11:08.big vision is not on a short list? Well, it is not as gloomy as that.
:11:09. > :11:11.If you look at what Sir Howard is proposing, he says he wants to hear
:11:12. > :11:24.more about the Isle of Grain site. He cannot yet rule it in or out. He
:11:25. > :11:27.cannot compare it with other airports with detailed plans for
:11:28. > :11:31.extending their runways. There is now a six`month period in which we
:11:32. > :11:35.can make the arguments for the Isle of Grain site. I think they are
:11:36. > :11:38.fantastic arguments based on a better environmental outcome, less
:11:39. > :11:44.noise pollution and more job creation. And long`term
:11:45. > :11:50.competitiveness for the UK economy. There will be an opportunity now to
:11:51. > :11:56.look very hard at the proposals coming from Heathrow, both the
:11:57. > :12:02.runway ideas you have heard in that report are extremely expensive and
:12:03. > :12:09.difficult and involve building these pontoons over the M25 . We hear you,
:12:10. > :12:15.but it is not on the short list and Sir Howard Davies did say that due
:12:16. > :12:18.to cost and environmental impact, it is not on the short list. But if you
:12:19. > :12:23.are so opposed to Heathrow expansion, why not just get behind
:12:24. > :12:29.the Gatwick option, which is on the short list? The Gatwick option is
:12:30. > :12:33.interesting and certainly less injurious than the Heathrow option,
:12:34. > :12:37.but it does not satisfy London and the UK's need for greater
:12:38. > :12:42.connectivity. Whatever happens, if you build a second runway at Gatwick
:12:43. > :12:45.and you keep Heathrow as it is, the airlines will keep going to
:12:46. > :12:50.Heathrow. You will not build up those extra links to the world that
:12:51. > :12:55.we need and that so many of your interviewees have talked about
:12:56. > :13:00.today. We have a situation now where it is easier to fly to China from
:13:01. > :13:06.Helsinki than it is from London, and that is because of the shortage of
:13:07. > :13:12.capacity and the lack of a big enough hub airport. The trouble with
:13:13. > :13:17.Heathrow is that it is in the wrong place. I do hear you and you have
:13:18. > :13:21.been loud and proud about your opposition to Heathrow expansion,
:13:22. > :13:24.but you do not want to be remembered as the mayor who could have done
:13:25. > :13:28.something to stop Heathrow expansion by backing Gatwick, but you did not
:13:29. > :13:33.because you were so distracted tidy idea of Boris Island? Well, we are
:13:34. > :13:38.going to fight for the right solution. That is my job. I have to
:13:39. > :13:42.stick up for what I think is right for London. I don't think Heathrow
:13:43. > :13:49.is the right way. By the way, another issue is that a third runway
:13:50. > :13:57.at Heathrow has been suggested many times before. In my view, it is not
:13:58. > :14:06.the deliverable. `` it is not deliverable. You said you're going
:14:07. > :14:10.to fight it. We have heard from Zac Goldsmith, who said he would force a
:14:11. > :14:13.by`election if expansion went ahead, or they would not stand
:14:14. > :14:17.again. Words aside, you say you are fighting it but what would you
:14:18. > :14:23.actually do if expansion gets the go`ahead? Would you stand down as
:14:24. > :14:29.mere? I do not see what that would achieve. `` mayor. My job is
:14:30. > :14:36.persuasion. Clearly, what we have to do is win the argument about the
:14:37. > :14:41.right way forward. At the moment, a lot of people support the idea of an
:14:42. > :14:46.SUV airport, even a lot of people in that part of the country, who see
:14:47. > :14:49.the economic benefits that it would bring. Loads people understand the
:14:50. > :14:54.advantage you would get from the housing land that you would liberate
:14:55. > :15:00.`` liberate at Heathrow. We have the chance to make the case. How would
:15:01. > :15:08.you fight it, Boris? In the way that I have been fighting it for the last
:15:09. > :15:14.four or five years. Six years, since I have been elected. We have been
:15:15. > :15:19.able to stop it so far. And I believe that we have the right set
:15:20. > :15:27.of arguments to get a fantastic result for this city. And have you
:15:28. > :15:32.told David Cameron your feelings? You can take it from me, unless I
:15:33. > :15:35.specifically tell you otherwise, I am in constant contact with members
:15:36. > :15:40.of the government. You spoke to him today? I do not believe in
:15:41. > :15:45.discussing my private conversations with friends and colleagues. But if
:15:46. > :15:50.it has an effect on London? My feelings are well known to you and I
:15:51. > :15:57.hope to others. Going down the route of Heathrow, I think it is wrong for
:15:58. > :15:59.the city. There are huge numbers of Londoners affected by noise
:16:00. > :16:05.pollution and we can sort this out and have a solution that is
:16:06. > :16:09.environmentally friendly. Mr Johnson, you have made that point
:16:10. > :16:14.and we thank you. Thank you for your time.
:16:15. > :16:19.Our political editor has been listening to that and following
:16:20. > :16:25.today's developments. He joins us from Westminster. The mayor is
:16:26. > :16:31.insisting that his ideas is being considered. But why this looks
:16:32. > :16:36.daunting for him is that contained in the detail of this report, Howard
:16:37. > :16:42.Davies was part of the way with the mayor. He describes this as an
:16:43. > :16:45.imaginative plan. He says that in the end, of all the options, this
:16:46. > :16:53.could bring the most benefit in terms of flights and noise. But it
:16:54. > :17:02.looks at the moment is to be completely impossible to deliver and
:17:03. > :17:07.the ideas are not there. The obstacles to great, says Davies. He
:17:08. > :17:13.does not see where the answers are going to come from. A potential cost
:17:14. > :17:18.`` of ?110 billion. What would that mean in terms of charges for the
:17:19. > :17:22.airline? In terms of Fayers? The impact on the affected area, the
:17:23. > :17:26.habitat, where will the compensatory habitat be for the birds in the
:17:27. > :17:31.estuary. ``? Will not be a prolonged legal wrangle about that? And
:17:32. > :17:36.finally, what do you do about Heathrow and the city of and
:17:37. > :17:43.Southend, which Davies predicts would also have to close? Biggest
:17:44. > :17:46.social and economic upheaval. The mayor said several times, at least
:17:47. > :17:50.we're still in the game and we can still make the case. But I'm not
:17:51. > :17:53.sure that he has a role to contribute formally to the enquiry
:17:54. > :17:58.because Howard Davies said today that he is not sure that Boris
:17:59. > :18:05.Johnson has got any more information on this one. They need to carry out
:18:06. > :18:10.an empirical process. And as you entered, the inevitable political
:18:11. > :18:14.battles overseas role to come. A number of people saying that this
:18:15. > :18:18.might at least persuade the party leaders to come and say before it be
:18:19. > :18:23.election where they stand. Zac Goldsmith, one of those opponents of
:18:24. > :18:27.expansion, as repeated today that he would trigger a by`election if after
:18:28. > :18:31.the next election the Conservatives favoured Heathrow. I've asked him
:18:32. > :18:34.today whether, if he was a principled, he should be going into
:18:35. > :18:39.this election as an independent, unless the Conservatives rule out in
:18:40. > :18:48.their manifesto expansion of Heathrow. I have already said that
:18:49. > :18:51.if we have Heathrow expansion in our manifesto, I would not stand as a
:18:52. > :18:56.conservative will stop if you ask me to go further, I cannot. There would
:18:57. > :19:03.be a clear choice between you, who actively rejects it, and other
:19:04. > :19:06.candidates standing and saying that they are going to wait and see. I'll
:19:07. > :19:10.understand and I would not agree to be a Conservative MP if there was
:19:11. > :19:16.going to be an agreement on Heathrow expansion. But the remains a
:19:17. > :19:21.question about how much this will be an election issue in 2015 if the
:19:22. > :19:24.three main parties are saying that we need to wait and see. It could
:19:25. > :19:30.neutralise this as an electoral issue, which is what David Cameron
:19:31. > :19:38.and George Osborne wanted. Tim Donovan, thank you. Coming up
:19:39. > :19:41.later, Arsenal's Jack Wilshere is charged by the FA for allegedly
:19:42. > :19:49.making an offensive gesture during a Premier League aim.
:19:50. > :19:52.`` game. The jury in the trial of two men
:19:53. > :19:57.accused of murdering soldierly Rigby in Woolwich in May has heard closing
:19:58. > :20:02.speeches. Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale both deny murder.
:20:03. > :20:07.Chris Rogers is outside the Old Bailey.
:20:08. > :20:12.Proceedings began today with a significant legal decision. The
:20:13. > :20:17.judge precisely over this case, Mr Justice Vos need, told the jury that
:20:18. > :20:22.they should no longer consider the count of conspiracy to murder a
:20:23. > :20:26.police officer. He added that some of the comments made by Michael
:20:27. > :20:32.Adebolajo from the witness box, such as being a soldier of Allah, trying
:20:33. > :20:36.to justify the killing, should not be considered as a defence to
:20:37. > :20:39.murder. The family have been here throughout the trial and they came
:20:40. > :20:44.today to hear the summing up. It began with the prosecution, with
:20:45. > :20:48.Richard Whitton QC reminding the jury that Islam, one of the world's
:20:49. > :20:53.great religions, is not on trial, nor could it be. They then showed
:20:54. > :20:56.images of the bloody knives found in Woolwich that date, saying that
:20:57. > :21:06.killing to make it political point, to put pressure on the government is
:21:07. > :21:10.murder and remains murder whether the government in question is good,
:21:11. > :21:15.bad or dreadful. The defence asked the jury question. Do you think that
:21:16. > :21:18.this the cruellest, most sadistic, most cowardly killing that has ever
:21:19. > :21:23.occurred in our nation's history? It is not. He told the jurors that the
:21:24. > :21:29.proper charge would have been treason, terrorism or maybe
:21:30. > :21:32.manslaughter. Michael Adebowale has not given evidence in this trial and
:21:33. > :21:40.his defence lawyer will sum up tomorrow.
:21:41. > :21:43.Jack Wilshere has been charged by the Football Association over an
:21:44. > :21:47.alleged gesture at their match with Manchester City last weekend. Sarah
:21:48. > :21:58.Orchard is here. Tell us, what happened? Arsenal lost 63 during
:21:59. > :22:01.that match. `` 65 and three. We do not have any footage of the gesture
