Up in the air madness...

There are many arguments for and against building a third runway at Heathrow. How it affects ethnic minorities or women should not really be taken into consideration. Yet, as Iain Dale reports, a decision on the future of Heathrow has had to be delayed because the government omitted to carry out a "race and gender impact assessment" of a new runway. There now has to be a new consultation to see how the proposals would affect ethnic minorities, women, the disabled and the elderly.

Madness, utter madness.
