Nobody has done more than Zach to oppose Heathrow expansion - I'm sad to see him treated this way. And I doubt Sarah Olney will be as effective. West London has lost a champion today. I hope he boots her out in 2020.

'Treated in this way'...... Boooh hooo......good riddance to the posturing millionaire! who ran a really vicious mayoral campaign by the way.

The last time what is now the Lib Dems were in power (by the party leader was PM) was 98 years ago, so house prices definitely aren't our fault, thank you.....

I actually feel a bit sorry for Zac, as he resigned on principal instead of backtracking, to lose his seat to a LD.

Seems the electorate want the runway.

Were you equally dismayed by Jacob Rees-Mogg campaigning alongside Zac the bigot? Isn't his constituency in Somerset or thereabouts?

So do you equally complain about all the cross-party work Zac did? For example, he has been photographed alongside John McDonnell (Shadow Chancellor) at demonstrations, who has also said: 'Zac is a principled person. He's done it [i.e. resigned from the Tory party] because he's fulfilling the promise he gave to his constituents and that's an honourable thing to do.'

And to quote from The Scotsman: 'Oh, for a Scottish Zac Goldsmith. Is there anyone in Holyrood who would put his or her political career at risk in the same way over a matter of principle?'

I hope Zac will continue his work to stop Heathrow expansion, because the 'liberal' democrats sure won't do so (the husband of the woman elected for my constituency apparently worked for Heathrow, so the token 'objection' doesn't work for me, I'm afraid). I think Zac can continue to be effective working on environmental issues anyway – he was instrumental in the creation of marine reserves the size of India around British territorial waters, for example, and has a great deal of knowledge about the environment. He was a great MP as far as I was concerned (the best I've ever had), but in the end was beaten by a party that – in their desperation to prove themselves relevant – spent millions on propaganda and hassling residents for weeks, with many people being brought in from outside. It would have been difficult for any independent to have won against that.

As for the illiberal democrats in Richmond Park, the residents who voted them in will deserve all they will get (that's provided we don't have a second by-election, since neither I nor many other people know who the woman elected is, beyond the fact that she's an accountant who only joined the LD party last year, or what good she'll be for the constituency!).

Which is as expected.
What the extra runway at Heathrow reinforces is the attraction of the South East of England to the rest of Britain. It will only add to the overcrowding and pressure on the poor infrastructure.
If British people seek quality of life then making the rest of Britain MORE attractive and the South East of England LESS attractive is one way to go.
