I have no wish to be insensitive to the many people who depend on PIK for a job but the bottom line is it is on Government funded life support, they probably can't close it whilst the current contract with Ryanair is in force without paying a substantial penalty in costs to FR and you can bet that the contract writing staff at FR have done a far better job than PIK ex or current management.

I can't see it staying open past Burns' day, if the SNP get a yes vote they will not be able to fund it along with all the other promises, if its a NO vote it will be closed and they will blame a) the UK Government for not funding it b) The Scots for not voting YES.

It's always someone else's fault where Scottish Government is concerned
