Does any other country tie itself up in such knots so regularly about major infrastructure projects? I remember talk about the third "Heathrow' airport when I was a child (more than 4 decades ago) and where it would be located, including, somewhat implausibly, Yorkshire. Unless Stansted has taken that title, I'm not sure it ever happened.
