easyjet wants to buys the World

Can we believe the Newspapers?

UK Times last Saturday had a piece about Barbara C. being in a huff with EJ. Nothing new there, and seems quite true.

Swiftly followed by leaks and confirmation that EJ is flirting with Deutsche BA, and might even talk with the unions. Given Ray W's attitude towards unions, that would be a real treat to witness and eaves drop on. But again true.

The next article is the stunner. Irish Times at the weekend. "If the Deutsche BA deal goes ahead it will enhance the prospects of an EJ takeover of Ryan Air."

WOW! I think they'll need to speed up the Irish peace talks significantly.

An analyst had the opinion that neither a GO merger or D. BA would present a monopoly and mergers problem, but could the Irish element be 'a take over too far.'

I don't know what they're smoking in easyland, but it's having wierd effects. Tell me it's all fantasy. If I was a major institutional share holder I'd be scared stiff.
