I'm sure they will not bother to express their views until Flybe are gone and the airport empty all day...and easyJet's pricing goes back to what they charge elsewhere, i.e. not willing to lose money on full flights like they do now.
What will the Island have? Same prices as before easyJet came. them once a day except Friday to Monday, and the real possibility of no links by air at all on Tuesdays. Unless you are Patient Transfer when you'll have the pleasure of some rotten old Easten European wreck on charter.
You can't blame leisure travelers taking the cheapest fares they can, Flybe's local staff don't hold any grudges either, but it is a job for the politicians to see the real danger and act to protect the Island's interests collectively.
Oh, and as the boss of Energy is on record as hating Flybe and loving EZ, we can expect a fully neutral view from the media, not.
But then they're used to being told "we told you so", anyway, and aren't renowned for learning from past mistakes.
