Thumbs down Panic by Barclays Bank towards Air travel!

You won't believe what I found out yesterday!!!

Barclays Bank has pushed out a memo to all its staff advising them NOT to travel by air unless absolutely necessary, business or pleasure!!!!

I am outraged by the knee jerk reaction with which this billion pound corporation is inciting panic. The next time a bank is robbed at knife point make sure we all take our money out of that bank(BARCLAYS !!!) .....because as we all know......it wont be safe to enter another bank ever again afterwards, we might get killed!!!!!!!!

If I was with Barclays I would now be moving all my accounts to a better place!!
I hope all you at Barclays Bank realise that if we all withdrew our money from your business you would have no business, HELP the airlines, don't shaft them !

Just about every major international organisation has issued a similar directive. It will all change back again over the next 6 - 12 months and in the meantime, few people are going to fly unless they need to, just to keep pilots salaries coming in.
