UK Government - Bailing out an airline

The UK government is proposing to use government money to bail out a failing regional airline Flybe.

They're also proposing to review air duty - which if they get rid of it would be a clear reversal of ecological policy.

Flybe's competitors aren't happy, the greens aren't happy and I thought it was the dangerous socialists in the Labour Party who were going to waste government money propping (no pun intended) up failing businesses, not the Conservatives :rolleyes:

IMO if the airline is commercially viable then it should stand on its own two feet. If there is a public service case to be made then the government should share in the benefits, not just the cost and in any case I'd want to see government money supporting more ecological transport methods.
