Funny how the 'deficit' increases as we go on. Now at £2Bn according to the Indie.
Independent actuaries employed by the TUs are more realistic and estimate it at somewhere between £500M and £800M.
So they have enough cash to 'invest' in the business by firming up 10 Boeing options but not to do the decent thing like Lufthansa and BAe and ensure the deferred pay is available to the staff!
