Commenting on the Government's decision to give the go ahead to the third runway at Heathrow, Susan Kramer, who leads the Liberal Democrats' campaign against the expansion of Heathrow, said: "This decision was the big test of Gordon Brown's commitment to the environment - and he has failed."
"This utter hypocrisy proves that the Government's green rhetoric simply cannot be believed.
"Ministers have changed the planning rules to stifle the voices of local residents and they have ducked a debate and vote in Parliament.
"The refusal to have a proper debate and vote in the House is a sign of absolute cowardice."
