Burnham declines to answer questions on delayed Heathrow third runway

Original: Burnham dodges questions on Heathrow third runway as project faces four-year delay https://www.theguardian.com/environme

Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham has avoided direct questions about the Heathrow third runway, a project now reportedly facing a four-year delay. The Heathrow expansion has long divided Labour figures, with Burnham among the party's prominent opponents of airport expansion, and his refusal to comment is drawing attention amid fresh questions over the scheme's timetable and the government's growth-versus-climate balancing act.

Why now: The confirmation of a four-year delay to the Heathrow expansion has reignited debate, and Burnham's silence is notable given his well-known opposition to the project.
