And is it April fools day?

They're thinking of moving the M25 for Heathrow's third runway?🤔

It seems so, but likely to be a long way off. According to Sky news:

But it will require re-routing the M25 motorway - one of the busiest in the country and the demolition of nearby villages, Longford and Harmondsworth.

I bet the residents of those villages will be delighted*

Quote

Come friendly bombs and fall on Slough!
It isn't fit for humans now,
There isn't grass to graze a cow.
Swarm over, Death!

Come, bombs and blow to smithereens
Those air -conditioned, bright canteens,
Tinned fruit, tinned meat, tinned milk, tinned beans,
Tinned minds, tinned breath.

Mess up the mess they call a town-
A house for ninety-seven down
And once a week a half a crown
For twenty years.

And get that man with double chin
Who'll always cheat and always win,
Who washes his repulsive skin
In women's tears:

And smash his desk of polished oak
And smash his hands so used to stroke
And stop his boring dirty joke
And make him yell.

But spare the bald young clerks who add
The profits of the stinking cad;
It's not their fault that they are mad,
They've tasted Hell.

It's not their fault they do not know
The birdsong from the radio,
It's not their fault they often go
To Maidenhead

And talk of sport and makes of cars
In various bogus-Tudor bars
And daren't look up and see the stars
But belch instead.

In labour-saving homes, with care
Their wives frizz out peroxide hair
And dry it in synthetic air
And paint their nails.

Come, friendly bombs and fall on Slough
To get it ready for the plough.
The cabbages are coming now;
The earth exhales.

John Betjamin, 1937.

Slightly less bonkers than Boris Island.

I take it we can forget about climate change then?

Cost price £5k. Cost to the government at mate’s rates, about the same as a mid range Merc.

No arguments about planks and ride heights. If your arse is skinned, it’s too low.

Hope that’s got a/c. That’s a greenhouse stuck on the front of a van.
