So, don't worry Branson, I'm sure others will take on your routes and runway slots. It's not in Britain's interests to bail you out.

company based in the virgin isles where he resides, this company then invoices the struggling uk companies for services rendered to be paid in the virgin isles thus bypassing the tax on his income that he should have paid, like an ordinary citizen?
