Hello

I have already posted a response once on this, but for some reason it has been removed. Not quite sure why and wanted to highlight in this day and age how crazy some things can be. Below, more or less, is my post again

If these B787 delivery flights are purely for financial/legal reasons then, Greta Thunberg would in this instance be quite correct if she said "The law is an ass". This means that "An application of the law that is contrary to common sense", and the use of the word ass is in the British sense referring to a donkey!
