Stephen Riley does have morals - and a sense of what is right &, more importantly, safe. He jumped/was pushed because he wouldn't sign off on outsourcing ALL training. He's not the first to put what's best for safety above what's best for himself. Garry Copeland did the same last year. As 'Managing Director Combined Operations' he was the 'Accountable Manager' and the legal buck stopped with him. When he asked IAG for money to do what he considered to be essential safety related work they refused. He jumped as well. There are some good guys around - but every day fewer!!
