Right, WMI. Trying to use the newest codes I can no more rely on my memory, apparently.

Now to Prague. Just a few quotations from yet another interview with MOL published by Czech journal today:

Will Ryanair return to Prague?
- "I cough(?) on Prague. People and maybe the government would want us in Prague, but the latter invalidates this by charging extra high airport charges."

Your stand on carbon emissions tax?
- "Europe has now to compete with Asia, America and Latin America but at the same time imposes new taxes on air travel. We look like idiots who tax themselves thus making our economies less competitive." "We Irish do care for the environment, but indeed my herd of cows produce more greenhouse gases than the entire Ryanair fleet altogether."

Obviously, you don't want to tax these cow emissions either?
- "Actually, I wonder why some idiots in Brussels didn't attempt to introduce it. In contrary, in Europe even the richest farmers, like myself, receive subsidies, and that influences the food prices for all European citizens. These grants belong to the most stupid tools man invented on Earth ever. "
