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?

I used to live in LB Hillingdon (Uxbridge) and the noise from the
airport never bothered me. And it was a very convenient airport to get
to from there.
