Just released youtube video of new airport for Mexico City

Quote: Economist

There have been no runways built in SE England since WWII. Last year the three main airports in the south-east—Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted, with four runways between them—handled more than 130m passengers, nearly 16m more than the main three serving New York, which have nine runways. Heathrow has been operating at more than 98% of its capacity since 2003. Gatwick, Britain’s second-busiest airport, is full 80% of the time. That results in congestion, which raises ticket prices and damages London’s reputation as a place to do business. The lack of runway capacity for flights to destinations such as Shenzhen or Wuhan will cost Britain £31 billion ($47 billion) in lost trade with the BRIC economies in the period it will take to build a new runway, according to the Confederation of British Industry.

You will recall, I'm sure, the PRD and its allies closed off Reforma Avenue for weeks after Lopez Obrador lost in the presidential elections.

Obrador is being called the front runner in the presidential election,

and he has vowed to kill the new airport. He has some vague plan about building two new runways at a military base 30 miles away and connecting them somehow to the current airport.
