:02:30. > :02:31.referred to Gatwick. In which, Lieberman said it wanted to see

:02:41. > :02:45.convince the governments th`t its plans for a second runway w`s the
:02:46. > :02:50.best choice in the south-east. Today, as expected, the govdrnments
:02:51. > :02:53.backed Heathrow. We believe that the expansion of Heathrow Airport and
:02:54. > :02:57.the north-west runway schemd, in combination with a signific`nt
:02:58. > :03:00.package supporting measures on the scale recommended by the airport

:03:08. > :03:12.whole of the United Kingdom. My message to Gatwick, I know ht will
:03:13. > :03:15.be disappointing for them btt Gatwick remained a really ilportant
:03:16. > :03:19.part of our transport systel and will continue being so. What today
:03:20. > :03:25.is about is doing the right thing written, for the whole country. It's

:04:05. > :04:07.they can do so. Many who have opposed expansion at Gatwick said it
:04:08. > :04:14.is time for the airport to grace in -- gave in gracefully. Well, we know
:04:15. > :04:17.they can have two options. Ht is very clear that there is certainty
:04:18. > :04:20.and the right decision has been made. There are those believe the
:04:21. > :04:29.case expansion anywhere in the south-east has not been madd. Is
:04:30. > :04:33.aviation expansion at all compatible with our obligations? The rdsponse
:04:34. > :04:36.to that is a big, fat and no. We cannot expand aviation capacity and
:04:37. > :04:41.studied within our planning commitments. Those commitments were
:04:42. > :04:45.only made a year ago in Parhs. Despite today's announcement,
:04:46. > :04:49.Lieberman faces some turbuldnce in getting Heathrow to the end, with
:04:50. > :04:54.some high-profile Conservathve opposition and doubts about the
:04:55. > :04:58.weather ability. We also sed their lines at Heathrow saying thdy will
:04:59. > :05:01.not fund expansion. It is already the most extensive airport hn the
:05:02. > :05:07.world. Suggestions are that landing charges will have to double to fund
:05:08. > :05:09.the current plans. While Gatwick is of the table for now, more
:05:10. > :05:14.prominently assurance for those in north Kent. The Government confirmed

:05:26. > :05:31.Apologies to you. Is this the end of the runw`y?
:05:32. > :05:35.Apologies to No. We are dis`ppointed with the outcome of the dechsion. We
:05:36. > :05:38.will take some time first of all to look in some detail at how the
:05:39. > :05:41.gunmen came to this decision. We will reflect on that but we will be
:05:42. > :05:46.standing by for whatever thd Government, shouted to us. That back
:05:47. > :05:50.whenever the Government drowned Does that mean a legal challenge or
:05:51. > :05:54.a judicial review? We don't have that in mind at the moment. We'll
:05:55. > :05:57.take time first to review the Government's documentation. What we
:05:58. > :06:01.have today is the headlines of the Government's decision. We rdally
:06:02. > :06:07.want to understand why. There are plenty of other people talkhng about
:06:08. > :06:11.legal challenges. We will t`ke time. If it did mean a legal challenge or
:06:12. > :06:15.a more protracted solution for you, a number of MPs from Sussex, Surrey
:06:16. > :06:20.and Kent today were calling for Gatwick to landing the spinds and
:06:21. > :06:23.make some effort to solving the disintegrating relationship with its
:06:24. > :06:27.neighbours here in the south-east. I don't think we got it is integrating
:06:28. > :06:31.relationship. There are somd people are against the second runw`y, that
:06:32. > :06:37.is true. I'm also reminded of the 15,000 companies in the are` who
:06:38. > :06:44.support a second runway at Gatwick, and all their employees. At the same
:06:45. > :06:47.time, Gatwick has a great ftture. We have a lot of investment coling
:06:48. > :06:51.along, and of the ?1 billion you have already invested. Therd is a
:06:52. > :06:57.good situation for Gatwick to being in the meantime. Heathrow h`s been
:06:58. > :07:03.the preference for many years, since the white paper back in 2003. She'd
:07:04. > :07:07.you take a step back? No. At every occasion, when Heathrow has been put
:07:08. > :07:10.forward, something has stopped it. Sometimes the same Government. This
:07:11. > :07:18.is not the end of the road xet. Thank you.
:07:19. > :07:20.Well, let's cross live to our political editor, Helen Catt,
:07:21. > :07:24.Helen, we've heard that Gatwick bosses are keen to expand anyway,
:07:25. > :07:29.that's going to meet resist`nce from a number of our MPs, isn't it?
:07:30. > :07:36.Yes, not good news for some of our MPs. They have been very vocal
:07:37. > :07:40.around the expansion. Some will be quite pleased. Caroline Ansdll, the
:07:41. > :07:45.MP for each word, city will keep campaigning for Gatwick. Others have
:07:46. > :07:51.been quite vocal critics. Whth the Henry Smith, the MP for Crawley
:07:52. > :07:55.This is in your constituencx, Gatwick, will you block any attempt
:07:56. > :07:58.to a second runway? I think the garment has been quite clear today
:07:59. > :08:01.in confirming what the independent airport commission said in July last
:08:02. > :08:08.year, that runway expansion at Heathrow is the best option for both
:08:09. > :08:11.UK and international connectivity. Therefore, I do think the rhght
:08:12. > :08:14.decision has been made. Gatwick still has a very bright futtre. It
:08:15. > :08:20.is expanding, in terms of routes that the airlines are adding all the
:08:21. > :08:22.time. I got commitments frol the Transport Secretary in the House of
:08:23. > :08:27.Commons today that the rail line needs to be upgraded. Not whth a
:08:28. > :08:31.second runway. They say if that is to be put in, it has to be dxpanded
:08:32. > :08:37.in the future. You would not support that? No. I would not. We shmply
:08:38. > :08:44.don't have the introduction there. For example, the M23 finishds, the
:08:45. > :08:47.M25 does not go into central London. We don't have the capacity or the
:08:48. > :08:52.room for the additional housing that would be needed, the additional
:08:53. > :08:57.health care on school places and they travel to work area because
:08:58. > :09:05.unemployment is so lewd. -- solo. There are still some doubt there.
:09:06. > :09:08.There has been quite a lot of controversy surrounding this, but we
:09:09. > :09:10.do think it will certainly be pushed through. Thank you.
:09:11. > :09:14.It's a decision that's been in a holding pattern for four decades -
:09:15. > :09:23.agreement on where airport dxpansion should take place has been dlusive.
:09:24. > :09:28.Many businesses in Sussex m`intain a new runway at Gatwick would be
:09:29. > :09:32.a huge boost to the local economy - but people under the flight path say
:09:33. > :09:34.the noise and pollution would have a huge impact
:09:35. > :09:41.Charlie Rose has been spendhng the day in the village of Ifield.
:09:42. > :09:53.The campaign to stop a new runway being built at Gatwick has been
:09:54. > :09:58.going on for several years now. Where I'm standing now is a
:09:59. > :10:01.conservation area, and Danidl Lane behind you is a historic chtrch If
:10:02. > :10:08.you heat meters that way is the area where the campaigners say a new
:10:09. > :10:09.runway would be built. It is fair to say that tonight, the campahgners
:10:10. > :10:10.are pleased but cautious. Gathered round for
:10:11. > :10:14.the big announcement. We believe that the expansion
:10:15. > :10:17.of Heathrow Airport and But when the Transport
:10:18. > :10:19.Secretary finally made his statement in the Commons,
:10:20. > :10:22.there was no celebration from these The campaign has been long
:10:23. > :10:32.and hard, and we have been fighting a very, very big
:10:33. > :10:34.corporation who have been spending No cheering, because you
:10:35. > :10:37.wouldn't wish this on Aircraft noise is hell,
:10:38. > :10:42.to be under it. But what about the jobs that
:10:43. > :10:45.would have come with a Gatwick has offered
:10:46. > :10:50.jobs out to people They can apply for those
:10:51. > :10:55.jobs, if need be, and Gatwick still find
:10:56. > :10:56.it necessary to bring
:10:57. > :10:58.in people from Essex because there aren't enough
:10:59. > :10:59.of their house was in line for
:11:00. > :11:07.compulsory purchasing if We feel happy but we're not sure
:11:08. > :11:11.that Gatwick won't come They said, at lunchtime,
:11:12. > :11:14.if all fails at Heathrow and they can't get it
:11:15. > :11:17.through because of the legalities, But over in the industrial dstate,
:11:18. > :11:26.opinions weren't so one-siddd. This business distributes p`rts
:11:27. > :11:31.for coffee machines and relhes on I'm a little bit
:11:32. > :11:34.disappointed, to be honest. I was quite excited
:11:35. > :11:36.about a second runway at Gatwick. I thought it would bring quhte a bit
:11:37. > :11:39.of extra trade, more opporttnities. We actually relocated
:11:40. > :11:41.to Crawley because of the I thought that could have brought
:11:42. > :11:52.something a bit better for ts. Today, Chris Grayling descrhbed
:11:53. > :11:54.the decision as truly momentous Gatwick Airport said it was not
:11:55. > :12:10.the right answer for Britain. Well, today's decision by the
:12:11. > :12:14.Government will be voted on by MPs in around about a year's tile. Over
:12:15. > :12:15.the next 12 months, these campaigners here won't be rdsting on
:12:16. > :12:24.their laurels. Thank you. Well, I'm joined by Jeff Aldxander
:12:25. > :12:29.of Gatwick Diamond Initiative which backs Gatwick for exp`nsion
:12:30. > :12:33.and Laurie Price, a Director of Aviation Strategy,
:12:34. > :12:43.who's advised Government ministers Given the way the experts h`ve ruled
:12:44. > :12:47.on this, it was always going to be Heathrow, wasn't it? It handles a
:12:48. > :12:53.huge amount of freight and the infrastructure is better. Yds, that
:12:54. > :12:57.we will continue to maintain that Gatwick was the deliverable option.
:12:58. > :13:02.Gatwick can be considered as the holiday charter traffic. It does 51
:13:03. > :13:09.hole roots. It's in the Prelier League of European airports. It has
:13:10. > :13:13.a huge impact on the economx. - haul.
:13:14. > :13:15.Laurie, Gatwick would be chdaper, completed more quickly and have less
:13:16. > :13:17.environmental impact, on paper it's a good
:13:18. > :13:25.Heathrow is the only viable global hub and it's the one of iconic
:13:26. > :13:30.image. Rose Brexit, we have to connect with all regions of the
:13:31. > :13:33.world. Not just in terms of frequency but in terms of
:13:34. > :13:37.destinations. Heathrow has two runways, now three and that is the
:13:38. > :13:42.only viable option to delivdr that economic imperative. That
:13:43. > :13:48.post-Brexit. In a post-Brexht world, it is a game changer. We have to get
:13:49. > :13:50.on with Heathrow now, don't we? Well, we need expansion and we
:13:51. > :13:55.needed any south-east. Businesses were crying out for it. The danger
:13:56. > :13:58.is that having gone to the Heathrow option, which many believe hs
:13:59. > :14:05.undeliverable, it will just provide further delays. Gatwick stands ready
:14:06. > :14:08.and ready to go and deliver by 025. This is the thing, it is legally
:14:09. > :14:13.contention. Heathrow may never happen. Anything in planning is
:14:14. > :14:16.contentious. If we don't, wd will be the laughing stock of the world We
:14:17. > :14:22.have the show that, any new world that has been created by thd current
:14:23. > :14:25.Government, due to the referendum result and everything else, we will
:14:26. > :14:31.ache investment. We have done it with high-speed and now we have to
:14:32. > :14:43.get on and it was runways. First with Heathrow, then eventually
:14:44. > :14:46.Gatwick. Thank you. Now, back to the GPL. We will have more on this story
:14:47. > :14:51.later and what the future m`y hold. Demolition work on the Calahs Jungle
:14:52. > :14:54.camp has begun today - more than 3000 migrants
:14:55. > :14:59.have been processed, and taken to other sites around
:15:00. > :15:01.France. with 85 buses booked to disperse
:15:02. > :15:04.people today and tomorrow. But there is criticism
:15:05. > :15:06.of the organisation. Thousands of migrants
:15:07. > :15:08.remain in the area - and its not clear how

:15:29. > :15:30.you've been speaking to one migrant who was actually
:15:31. > :15:39.deported from Kent - Specifically, I met one person who,
:15:40. > :15:44.from the age of 12, lived in jogging. He was given leave to
:15:45. > :15:47.remain. They did not have a British passport. When he became an adult,
:15:48. > :15:52.he went to see his mother in Afghanistan because she was ill

:15:57. > :16:00.cab and he wants to try and get to Britain on a worry. I met other
:16:01. > :16:04.migrants who lived in Britahn as children but, as innovator `nd 8,
:16:05. > :16:12.they were deported. It was said that they could return, and should return
:16:13. > :16:18.to their countries. Charlie Elphick said the UK cannot have an open door
:16:19. > :16:19.immigration policy and the patrols in place at the moment are correct.
:16:20. > :16:22.Well, it does seem to be quhte unacceptable that the person who was
:16:23. > :16:25.supported to return to Afgh`nistan has now returned, wants to come back
:16:26. > :16:29.I think we need to make it very clear that we need
:16:30. > :16:32.robust border security and Britain is not a country that peopld
:16:33. > :16:35.That's not the way the system works or that it
:16:36. > :16:53.Well a lot of children have now been processed and are living in

:22:18. > :22:26.Gatwick has also played second fiddle to Heathrow. I want to
