Look Bagso, your key point is that for MAN to succeed you have to go on the attack against BA even being allowed to offer a one stop connection to their long haul network, inferring that they're spreading disease. I mean come on! You don't even pause for breath before extolling the virtues of attracting competing foreign based long haul network carriers in to take existing market share from a UK carrier.
I am pro having LHR as a world class hub, competing with similar peer airports. There's a load wrong with LHR and am not a fan boy per se, I want my country to succeed. Which is why I read your rant as an attack on a UK registered carrier supporting thousands of British jobs in difficult times, to bar them from even serving MAN in favour of the likes of the ME3 who treat their employees frankly appalingly. I found that worth challenging. I want MAN to succeed but am not looking to run down someone else's business and job to do so.
