With close on 30K pieces of luggage stacked packed and racked and the piece de la restonance the automatic car finder. I refer the wonderful idea of using a computerised system to find your car when you return from holiday. You just type in your registration and it tells you where your car is. Of course that is unless you haven't followed the arrows and like most people park in the first space available. No its send you elsewhere and you end up hunting for your car, lovely it is, just what you need after a long haul flight.
It is difficult to say keep it open, as it has been a joke-and not a very funny one-but if they don't keep it going, they can't sort out the problems now, then how else? 4.3 billion is a lot of money-it HAS to work…..just not very well at the moment.

The thing with teething problems is that the system needs to be operational to find them out and deal with them. Though I would have thought a few dummy runs would have been helpful.
T5 was a waste of money. The actual number of flights available from Heathrow was not increased by T5, it was already working to capacity. Only a 3rd runway would increase flight capacity.

somethings got to be done, they could close it and reopen it as a prison ours are pretty full at the moment or they could use it as a drop-in centre for immigrants, these suggestions would be a lot kinder on the environment.

What you suggest is just not the British way.
They will muddle through, despite causing tens of thousands of people inconvenience and huge embarrassment to the management and staffs.
In a couple of years they will get it somewhere near right, at which point it will become redundant or insufficient to meet the perceived demand.
Then they will close it so they can spend another several tens of millions on building another, so they can repeat the faults of the current chaotic mess.
Now THAT is the British way.
