British airline industry- so many failures?

I can't help but think there is an inherent problem with the airline industry in the UK. Compared with other countries we have so many failures. Here are a few:

Air Safaris
Pegasus
Skyways
Trans European (the one with Constellations)
Treffield
British Eagle
Tradewinds
IAS
Lloyd International
Channel Airways
Donaldson
Court Line
Laker
Air Europe
British Caledonian
Dan Air
British Midland ( and fly BMI etc).
Duo
XL airways
Wales Cyrmru
British World
Silverjet
Highland Airways
Monarch
Thomas Cook

And many more smaller companies (please name those I have missed). . I know some were taken over for a token sum but they were bust really. How do we make things more stable for employees and travellers.
