Leaders of some of the UK's largest companies have started a revolt against the third runway at Heathrow.
An open letter, signed by 13 business leaders, is expected to question the benefits to business of the runway and to call for more exploration into possible alternatives, the Daily Telegraph reported.
Among the names listed were James Murdoch, head of News Corporation in Europe and Asia, and BSkyB chief Jeremy Darroch.
"To say that all those from the business community support the third runway is wrong," the letter states.
The company leaders will call for more new high-speed rail links, and raise environmental and safety concerns, the paper said.
