Apparently it was designed to 'float' above the water not displace it so I'm confused too.

The TB is going to have to be replaced at some point so at least Boris's scheme would include this.

Anyway, why have a nice bright shiny new airport with plenty of capacity when we can bolt another bit onto Heathrow and find ourselves short of capacity again a couple of decades later?
