Default OT and ironic: Boris Johnson's opposition to Heathrow could derail MP bid

___________

I'd always assumed that Boris's opposition to Heathrow was purely
political, designed to curry favour with the Londoners who live under the
flight path, and therefore hate Heathrow. So it's ironic that the safe
London seat he may want to stand for has many voters who depend on Heathrow
for their income, but aren't much bothered by the noise.


As the constituency of Hillingdon is to the north of Heathrow do the
do the electors care about the noise?
