Speculatio­n in air pollution ‘report’

-

NO one should be fooled by last week’s so-called report on air pollution at Heathrow.

This ‘report’ has yet to be published let alone peer reviewed and seems based less on facts and more on highly imaginativ­e speculatio­n on the future of motor vehicle technology. It has already been ridiculed by Greenpeace and Client Earth

What a coincidenc­e that this unpublishe­d report should become a BBC news item at this critical juncture just before a government announceme­nt on airport expansion. Only the cynical would think this was all part of an operation to soften up public opinion prior to a seemingly inevitable announceme­nt for a third runway.

You would have thought that Theresa May had enough on her plate with Brexit, grammar schools, Hinckley, fracking and HS2.
