HEATHROW DECISION DELAY ANGERS BUSINESS

The UK government is under-fire for again putting off a decision over whether to expand London's Heathrow Airport.

Business leaders are expressing their anger at having to wait until next year, with the government calling for more environmental research in the meantime.

Heathrow airport is one of the world's busiest hubs, but is operating at full capacity and it warns it will lose out to European competitors if another runway isn't added.

However, several senior Conservative politicians are opposed to Heathrow's expansion - leading the Prime Minister to delay a decision.

Political reporter Theo Usherwood is at Westminster and says the government is under pressure.
