There is no doubt the numbers speak for themselves in pure business terms. Indeed, action is required and will unfold.

However this is not solely about business, it is a company that is portrayed proudly as the British National Flag carrier.

What constitutes the title of “National Flag Carrier” and how to you quantify the benefits??

What part of the very core of BA today is actually British?

In my view the use of “British” does need tighter scrutiny and proportionate
influence/control from the British government as a cost for using our flag. This usage needs to be born in mind when criticising our elected MP’s whom are merely working very hard protecting British values and British jobs.
