No labour politician is going to risk ordering the reopening of airspace if it might mean losing votes.
Yes, it obviously a vote winning strategy to close down the holiday business, strand 150k abroad, put major companies into bankruptcy and hundreds of thousands of people out of work, interfere with the export business and cause potential serious economic damage at the time of election.
Any political party would find that a good idea would it? Are you serious?
Why no word from the likes of GE,RR,Pratt amongst others as to their view on things?
If you had bothered to read this thread, you would have se comment from GE specifically about the effects.
Why do so many people feel happy to make statement along the line of ' I know nothing about this subject, I haven't bothered to find any thing about it but on the basis of my lack of knowledge, even when its pointed out to me, my gut feeling is that they are all wrong'.
Vested interest.
