Opposing the Estuary Airport plans
Local Councillor's teamed up with local residents and young activists to oppose the proposed Tory plan for a mega-airport on the Grain Peninsula.
An airport which will take twenty years to build, cause transport havoc in North Kent, bulldoze over an RSPB nature reserve and historic communities and potentially blight Medway with noise and increased pollution for years.
The Conservative government has changed its position. It had given assurances to residents that there were 'no plans' for an airport but have since undertaken a u-turn without giving residents a chance to decide.
Medway Labour is calling for a local referendum which will allow you, the public, to decide whether an airport for our area is right.
