Here is the letter, signed by six north Kent Members of Parliament, sent today to the Prime Minister, seeking an urgent meeting regarding the possibility of a new airport "in or around the Thames Estuary"...
UPDATE @ 1845: Mark Reckless MP has now posted this letter on his own 'blog. There are also new indications that the idea of this airport is yet again fading. I think it always has been a non-starter, but hyped by certain interests to give a different impression.
Incidentally, while I am linking to Mark's site: I too was at this event with Nirj Deva MEP – you can just see me in my usual unobtrusive photo-call position at the back!
Also out this evening is YouGov's poll on "Boris island", showing 47% oppose it, just 23% support it, and 49% believe that the UK's status as a "hub" is safe without it.
