The Tories can't decide whether they object to an expansion of airport

privatisation when they came to power, I suspect the Tories wouldn't
reverse any decision on Heathrow. Anyway, let's wait for the official
announcement.

The Tories have already stated, unequivocally, that they will cancel any
planned third runway at Heathrow when (if) they get into power.

What political parties say in opposition does not in any way reflect
what they do in power. I fully expect the Tories' green gloss to start
flaking as soon as they win the election, and to be a mere memory
within three years.
