Local campaign group Back Heathrow, welcomes the High Court’s decision to grant an injunction to Heathrow Airport, which will restrict eco-activist groups protesting on its property.
Executive Director of Back Heathrow, Parmjit Dhanda said: “The summer has arrived, so hard-working families want to take their holidays. Now they can take comfort knowing they won’t be denied boarding by Just Stop Oil or similar groups. It’s a victory for common sense, and a victory for ordinary people who work hard all year round.”
Mr Dhanda continued: “I agree we must decarbonise aviation, but instead of causing havoc for passengers, we need to speed up aviation’s progress to net-zero, with more commitment to Sustainable Aviation Fuels.”
Back Heathrow represents 100,000 residents living close to Heathrow Airport and campaigns for sustainable growth of the airport.
