Bunch of clowns ?
That "bunch of clowns" employ a large number of British people who appear happy with MK's UK connection ... operations still very much controlled out of the UK (95% by British employees) and maintenance has a large "Brit" contingent.
As for supermarket traffic ... I saw three fully laden MK aircraft leave NBO on behalf of HOMEGROWN (Kenya's biggest supplier to the UK) in the last two days - I doubt they were carrying a big top and trapeze !.
