Ms Reeves has said a third runway at Heathrow could be built and ready to use by 2035
While the article discusses Chancellor Rachel Reeves' support for a third runway at Heathrow Airport and her broader plans to boost the UK economy, the main conceptual idea is ownership of Heathrow Airport.
It traces the history of Heathrow's ownership from its privatization under Margaret Thatcher, through its time as BAA plc, to its current status as Heathrow Airport Holdings, ultimately owned by a Spanish consortium led by Ferrovial.
This information is presented as context for understanding the potential implications of Heathrow expansion, especially considering the airport is not government-owned.
