    No, if Richard Branson wants his airline to survive he can sell all of his private assets first before asking the tax payer for a bailout.

    Whenever we are in situations like this there should be a way that the public can do a quick e-referendum about what to do. I bet most people will say balls to him (apart from employees and flight ticket holders).

    Either let the airline sink or nationalise it and rename to British Atlantic.

        From my impeccable sources

        He might not own more land than all the Royals combined. But more farmland than any individual Royal.


        The Queen owns more castles though.

          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                    What would Greta say?

                    I did hear she is unwell. But as soon as Corona goes away and the attention goes back onto her, she will be okay again...
