    If governments applied equitable tax regimes BT, then there would be no need for tax dodging, but they want to make the pips squeak as Denis so eloquently put it. Hollande took it to the extreme in France, but the pip didn't squeak, they simply left the country, took their wealth with them and he had to back down. But do socialists ever learn, of course not, Socialists still want to make the pips squeak, you can't educate pork.

    I don't suppose his employers give a FF about him either BT, or whether he gives a FF about them, all they want is a job at the end of the day and money coming in to pay the bills. I was concerned they might lose their jobs, you just wanted him closed down with no thought for his employees. But you're supposed to be the 'socialist' ?

    Funny old world.

    I'm not sure if airlines workers are in a Trade Union, but I really hope they are.

    We are getting a bit off topic here sinkov. Why should we bale out Virgin Atlantic and for example leave the Scottish fishing fleet to rot?

    I think there are a few fishing boats left in Scotland after the EU has destroyed the Scottish Fishing industry BT, but a fleet ? I didn't think there were that many.

    I have the answer.

    Everyone must be forced to go indoors.

    Then a squadron of modified aircraft be adapted to spray Dettol over the entire country.
    Once this has been done then everyone must go outside.
    Then an army of "Dettol Girls" go into every building and clean thoroughly them with Dettol.

    Problem solved.

    Why didn't Hancock think of this?

    Why didn't Hancock think of this?......He did but concluded the population would increase after 9 months ,causing the hospitals to be overloaded and extremely stressful.
