Why the flight were always late, but I am not quite sure. How come? They have be an improvement on-time performance. Helps those passengers to get in the aircraft on-time and save the time. Must reduced the congestion. Because it was too many aircraft are awaited for takeoff from LHR. I knows there is no new third runway and they have to be reduction the congestions. All airlines will have to shifted out of LHR. Because it was too many airlines at LHR. Due to the slots controlled. LHR is an slots restricted.
It's time to start built new third runway for LHR. Must demolished the old house and they have to bring more room for third runway extension. All airlines have to be reduced the congestion. Because LHR Is getting more extremely overcrowded. There is no more slots available. BA have to fixed the congestion and improved on-time performance. I think it's time to built third new runway immediately. They have to save the time. I really am.
OP, i am sorry for the nasty comments you are getting, i understand how well you do to post. You may wish to explain to the BA forum as you are not a regular here.

Yes its time for a solution but the government, the Mayor of London and the public will probably argue on for another 40 years before anything is done about it!

As already explained English is not the OP's first language, and sign language does not necessarily follow the grammatical syntax of that country's language. Eg, BSL (British Sign Language) probably have more in common with Welsh than with English.
Sometimes I slip up too, or write something that makes zero sense. Especially with have/has/had as all three sound identical to my ears.
Anyway, I digress...
If we're talking about BA's on-time performance at LHR, is it really getting worse? I thought it improved considerably a few months after T5 opened... and more or less stayed that way with gradual improvements over the years?
Although I find we often leave a little late it seems most of the time we arrive on time or even a couple of minutes early (there are exceptions of course). So I guess that BA make an allowance for delayed departure in their flight timings. Not that that detracts from the OPs point - making an allowance is just another way of saying planning to be late!
Cross winds, headwinds, re-routings, being landed on the PEK runway that seems a 450mile taxi to the terminal, etc seem to be bigger factors in the length of journey though than a few minutes at the gate IME.

I can't even begin to think why that would be or how it would work. You will have to explain it to me over a beer at some FT do.
When I first read about 'Boris Island' I thought it was the most ridiculous thing ever devised. Upon
further reflection it does make sense. LHR is trapped in a sea of suburbia and unless most land is
bought it will remain an island of chaos. Thus, expanding out of London (proper) does have some
merit. Realistically, rail lines, building the actual airport etc is unlikely.
I hate the idea of Borris Island. But then I live in Bucks so LHR is easy. There is a vast amount of business in the M4 corridor for a reason. Also BI will be a lot further away for a lot of the country.
