If their services are to UK airports exclusively, operation of G-registered aircraft should not be an issue, unless I am misunderstanding the regulations?
Think that would be plausible and allowable under Third Country rules, not sure how you would manage right to live and work rules though.
Current stance apparently is increase capacity at current bases and retain the flexibility to acquire necessary slots for growth as and when they become available. So unless anything has changed a new base is unlikely in the next couple of years.
