Anything is possible with Eastern. Staff will probably be expected to relocate to MME at their own expense and be told to be grateful they have a job.

Looks like LM have well and truly shoved them out of NCL which has been an Eastern base for at least 15 years! The same could be said of the NWI base as well. The MME experiment is a last ditch attempt to hold onto their NE roots, it’s their only option.
