UK job chances for a German ?

Hello all,

I am currently employed as F/O B737NG with a German airline (about 1000 hrs on type). As my current company seems to be in trouble (guess which one...) and my girlfriend lives in Scotland, I have started to think about changing my employer rather earlier than later.
My questions now:
Is there anyone in this forum who can tell me about the problems I might encounter as German wanting to work for a UK employer ? (working permit, insurance issues etc.)
As my favourite base would then be EDI and I'd preferably stay on the 737, the only operators I came up with are Globespan and Ryanair (starting Sept 08 acc. to ppjn.com).
What is known about their recruitment situation ? Are they a good choice as employer ?
What about other airlines with EDI bases (Easy, FlyBE etc...) ?
Thank you for your honest advice and answers in advance.

Regards from Germany
Georg
