Takeover offer??

BA takeover and impact on BA/negotiations with CC et al.
As BA's share price is still weak, might a take-over be a possibility?
A year or so ago, MOL had a go at taking over Aer Lingus. He was stopped by the EU and Irish Government.
Would he have a go at taking over BA? he certainly has the financial power to do so - his Chairman is also Chairman of TPG, one of the biggest and most powerful of the American private equity houses.
Is there anything to stop MOL, or anyone else, from launching a take-over whilst BA's Board are focussed on their awful results and equally awful Employee Relations?
