Another B757/A320 Operator bust - How will it affect the UK market?

With the demise of Skyservice in Canada as reported here in the news forum:

PPRuNe News Forum - SSV Receivership

I'd be interested to know how those working at TCX (who had a reciprocal agreement in place for seasonal flightdeck labour) and the general pilot community think this may affect things with TCX and in the UK jobs market as a result.

Will Thomas Cook UK bring these guys in en-masse?
Will the unions/government potentially block it?
Will TCX have to recruit home grown pilots now their partner airline has gone bust?
What do PPRuNers think TCX will do going forward?

An insight from TCX pilots who flew with former Skyservice pilots or SSV pilots themselves may want to comment would be welcomed.

Again, news of another airline demise is never good reading and best wishes to all those made redundant.
