I can't believe such protectionism still exists. What exactly will easyjet **** up as you put it? The status quo? The monopoly that current airlines have and take advantage of? And since when was the SEN-LON rail link expensive? Have you paid for a ticket on the gatwick express recently?? Ultimatley if people want to use such a service they will and if they don't they won't but they should be free to choose - competition is the life of trade.
