So, dublinaviator, you are wrong.
Completely wrong.
Ryanair hasn't had to sell any of its stake in Aer Lingus so I dunno where you're pulling that from.

If you want to talk about facts, the European Court of Justice ruled last year that Ryanair can hold it's stake in Aer Lingus. So not only is the UK OFT wasting their country's taxpayers money investigating something they have no say in, they're also meddling in Irish affairs where they have no jurisdiction, regardless of what a UK court says. Not to mention they're investigating something thats already been ruled on by not just the ECJ but also the European Commission, who have the ultimate say over this.
