When the cash runs out there are no jobs. That is a focus for the mind. It has happened so many times. What would the AZ staff want? As it is impossible to protect all jobs the issue is about how many can be protected if changes are made. If AZ fails and some of their staff go and fly, say, for EasyJet they will have none of their priveleges. I bet they would rather do than than have no work. It is about time they realised just how strong those market forces are outside their own cosy world.
