BAA sources tell Channel 4 News that plans are well underway for the third Heathrow runway, despite Greenpeace attempts to delay the project.

The Greenpeace purchase of a piece of land central to the expansion project has been dismissed as nothing more than a "clever stunt", and sources say it will not delay work.

This latest development comes amid last-minute political objections which may further delay the government decision.
