'two weeks ago we have drawn close to exhausted the start-up funding provided to us far more rapidly than anticipated'
Not even correctly worded!! Exhausting surely (though in two weeks not sure you could break much of a sweat!)

If 'Love Holidays' are behind this I'm surprised there weren't more realistic time frames and funding.
All seems a bit strange. If the first two weeks were all too much for you perhaps you went into this more than a little bit wet behind the ear.

In case anyone didn’t see this, this was posted only yesterday on their socials (cropped due to file size limit). I believe they announced the suspension before this poll even finished:

Has to have been some sort of elaborate hoax? Appeared out of nowhere 2 weeks ago much to the surprise of everyone in the industry (ie. no rumours) then has gone again already.
Gained a little bit of traction with a speculated connection to Love Holidays as they actually hold the old name? (2+ 2= 5)
The new brand and livery renderings could have been knocked up in an hour.

@letsmonarch
We have been approached with new options to continue launching Monarch. We hope to bring more positive news to you shortly. Monarch's Chairman is to step down and be replaced with immediate effect. We are working tirelessly and will continue to do so.

A lot of business deals etc were done on the basis of low interest rates. Now it's clear that those days are gone and rates are likely to remain realistic, then a lot of business plans fall apart.
I admire the fact that they paused before they had spent significant amounts.

Anyone remember the UK children's tv programme 'Jakanory' ?
I'll tell you a story
About Jack a Nory,
And now my story's begun;
I'll tell you another
Of Jack and his brother,
And now my story is done.

This is just completely bizarre.
What have Love Holidays got to say about this - who own the Monarch trademarks and who started a process to register some additional Monarch trademarks more less than two weeks ago? The timing of that, as posted earlier, tied in to the start of "noise" about Monarch 2.0 and I'm finding it difficult to believe that they are not involved somehow.

Whole thing looks like a scam/school project.
This was unearthed by Easyjet's Social Media Manager (ex-Monarch)

I said this would end like Flybe. Luckily it happened even quicker.
