Any chance of a move into STN should MAG win it?
Would love to think so. They do already have cargo flights to Stansted ocassionally so would be great to get passenger flights. They'd be a good competitor to Ryanair on the Spanish (mainland, Balearic's and Canaries)Greek and Cypriot routes and EasyJet on the Turkish and Croatian routes and would also fill in the gap left by easyJet who have cut back quite drastically recently (but never announced it, unlike Ryanair!).

I'd always say when asked that question in the past, that I can't see it happening however it does seem more likely than a Monarch move to Stansted (since they already have Gatwick and Luton) and Stansted would probably be the best London airport for Jet2, since Gatwick is already over-crowded with leisure flights to the typical Alicante, Palma, Tenerife, Heraklion, Dalaman, Paphos etc. Stansted could actaully benefit with more capacity and more competition on these type of services!
