I fear that this "silliness"of Ms Kurchner is beginning to have it's own momentum.
Shortly she will have painted herself and by her rhetoric the UK into a corner.
There reaches a point in any argument where the words stop and the primeval "put up or shut up" takes over.
Me thinks a "preplanned" rotation of forces on the FI takes place, air, sea and ground. Thus for the period of handover a doubling of assets and a very strong BACK OFF message gets sent to BA and the warmongering crazy lady.
