Usual childish rubbish from SRB, has he not heard the adage that he who pays the piper calls the tune. Be interesting if someone took up the 49% stake on offer and then decided that they wanted the airline run their way. I know that SRB has an effective veto with his 51% share however I cannot imagine a buyer becoming a sleeping partner.

My money FWIW, is on WW long term.
