i am not afraid of change I’ve spent the last 50 years causing it to happen in a wide range of contexts. However I’ve always done that on the basis of a simple risk reward equation. How risky and costly is the change and how great the benefit. Brexit and leaving EASA fails every version of that test I’ve seen thus far.

Moreover the growing collaboration amongst European countries through the EU Treaties is inspiring. Do I think the EU is marvellous, no it’s flawed and imperfect but with a positive vision. Do I think the U.K. is perfect, far from it, you only need to drive the potholed roads and watch the news to see that. The UK in the EU can drive a positive future, outside who knows?
