I don't see why this feature should be taken off the front page. It  
went through the correct process with about 36 hours for people to  
raise issues about it. It draws together newswire pieces about the  
previous climate rush article and the info about the coming action on  
Monday. Yes it is blatantly an announcement presented as a feature but  
there have been plenty of those in the past. This is major news and  
the action on monday will generate plenty of newswire content. Today  
the evening standard front page was the runway three decision  
announcement which will be confirm early next week, possibly even  
monday. On top of that there was the plane stupid sentencing a couple  
of days ago which would fit really well into this feature.
I think the feature should go back up and I'll put it back up till  
more people engage in this discussion.
