Airport on Kent and Essex Estuary will cause damage to wildlife

The Mayor of London wants to build an international airport on a man made island off the Kent and Essex coast in the Thames Estuary. Medway Council, Kent County Council, and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) have started a campaign to get this £40 billion scheme thrown out due to the massive impact it will have on our area and the environment.
Seven years ago, we successfully fought off a similar scheme at Cliffe, on the Hoo Peninsula, thanks to overwhelming support from the public.
