Capacity constraints at Heathrow Airport are restricting growth, according to a new report by MPs which calls for the Government to reverse its position and support a new runway. MP Tim Yeo challenged the PM on the issue yesterday.
The Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has said the Coalition will not approve a third runway at Heathrow, but admitted there was "a legitimate debate to be had" about how to increase aviation capacity.
David Cameron has been challenged by senior backbencher Tim Yeo to show whether he's a man or a mouse over expansion at Heathrow.
The Coalition will keep its pledge not to build a third runway at Heathrow Airport despite renewed pressure, Downing Street said.
