million of London taxpayers' money on it, and today the Airports | :00:13. | :00:21. | |
Commission rejected his proposal But Boris Johnson is still vowing to | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
fight on with his 'pet project'. The multi`billion`pound plan was | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
dismissed on cost Our political correspondent, | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
Karl Mercer, For the mayor and his aviation | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
advisor, the talking goes on. The big sell continues for an | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
airport scheme seemingly consigned to history by a Government`appointed | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
group of experts. Game over for the estuary ahrport... | :00:48. | :00:57. | |
On a day of interviews we took our turn to quiz the mayor who blames | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
civil servants in Whitehall for the demise of the scheme, saying they | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
always supported expansion `t Heathrow. There's a complete | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
Heathrow. There's a completd abdication of political | :01:09. | :01:12. | |

trying to produce a valid, bold original, long`term solution which | :01:15. | :01:16. | |

what we need to hear is what the other solution should be. We want | :01:41. | :01:40. | |
other solution should be. Wd want the politicians to make a decision | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
as soon as Business leaders possible. In London today agreed on | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
the need for a solution, but not necessarily with the mayor's attack | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
on the airport commission. We need the extra capacity now. Tomorrow | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
wouldn't be a day too soon. So, I'm pleased that the focus is on what is | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
doable in a realistic time My competitors frame. In Holland an | :02:03. | :02:06. | |

the mayor is facing more criticism the mayor is facing more criticism | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
from his City Hall opponents, pushing his plan has cost London's | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
taxpayers more than ?5 millhon. The taxpayers more than ?5 million. The | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
problem here is that Boris Johnson didn't look at any of the evidence | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
or research before he spent so much public money pushing the proposal. | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
It was never going to work. It's reported that the Lib Dems will | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
tomorrow rule out airport growth. We've argued against expanding | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
airport capacity in the south`east. We think that environmentally we | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
need to restrain airport growth and air travel growth for climate change | :02:48. | :02:49. | |

Boris Johnson sounding confident there. What are the chances of his | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
estuary airport plans being revived? Let's face facts. It's been obvious | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
today that his option of the estuary airport is very much at the back of | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
the queue. It's very unlikely to happen in the short`term. We have | :03:29. | :03:30. | |
happen in the short`term. Wd have these other options on the table, | :03:31. | :03:38. | |
for growing runways at Heathrow and one for Gatwick. The money hs on the | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
one for Gatwick. The money is on the Gatwick option. The mayor isn't | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
giving it up. He's come out fighting today. But make no mistake about it, | :03:46. | :03:47. | |

Because the bottom line is `viation policy toxic, expanding is very hard | :04:20. | :04:21. | |

The Metropolitan Police has been told it should review all | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
discrimination cases mounted against the force since 2008. | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
It comes after an employment tribunal awarded a firearms officer | :04:36. | :04:37. | |
nearly ?40,000 for racial and sexual discrimination by a senior officer. | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
PC Carol Howard firearms officer in the Diplomatic Protection Group and | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
poster girl for the Met polhce poster girl for the Met polhce | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
during the Olympics. But earlier this year PC Howard brought a claim | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
of discrimination against the force, claiming she was victimised because | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
of her gender and race. In July an employment tribunal agreed finding | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
that Miss Howard had been t`rgeted that Miss Howard had been t`rgeted | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
for almost a year by acting inspector Dave Kelly, whose | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
management style was overbearing, management style was overbe`ring, | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
intrucive and unreasonable and who discredited and belittled hdr. | :05:12. | :05:12. | |
discredited and belittled her. Today, she was awarded more tan | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
?37,000 in compensation with judges heavily criticising the way the Met | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
police handled her grievancds. It's so disappointing that we are still | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
discovering that the Metropolitan Police aren't taking these issues | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
Police aren't taking these hssues very seriously. They haven't | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
apologised. They haven't accepted what the tribunal has found. They | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
tried to explain it away by saying it was just one officer who was | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
doing this. In fact, there was a clear policy in place to prdvent | :05:42. | :05:43. | |
clear policy in place to prevent findings of discrimination being In | :05:44. | :05:44. | |
fact, made. The tribunal found the fact, made. The tribunal fotnd the | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
Met had a practice of delethng references to discrimination during | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
internal investigations and recommended an independent review | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
into its practices. It all comes as no surprise to those who monitor the | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
conduct of the force towards its employees. This is not the first | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
time that the Met have been found wanting around issues of diversity. | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
So, for me, the recommendations given by the tribunal don't go far | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
enough. The Met has released a statement this afternoon saying that | :06:15. | :06:15. | |
statement this afternoon saxing that as part of the independent review | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
into its fairness policy, it will now look back at previous c`ses of | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
now look back at previous cases of discrimination within the force. | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
That means it could face more legal action from officers who've been | :06:28. | :06:28. | |
discriminated against in the past. I discriminated against in thd past. I | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
