Branson is just taking care of his 'investments' not that he cares so much about our economy.If he did he would have heavily invested in the local airline industry. Think about that for a moment before mourning the state of our economy.
But some points he did raise are valid. Some of this advisories are issued merely to 'punish' our political leaders. E.g do you think Britain was happy with the switch from sourcing GoK vehicles esp. police autos from UK to contracting in the East?
And its not like the targets of the advisories think so much of our country. Sample some of the comments in the articles:
Quote:He sadly is becoming rather disconnected, supporting more noise at Heathrow instead of 6 runway, 24 hour airport and now sending holiday makers to potentially dangerous places for extra cash. Headline should read: Branson's Brain is shrinking!
Quote:Branson is obviously only interested in getting his hands on our money and couldn't give a hoot about any danger posed to tourist's lives in going to these unstable countries...
Quote:Bon voyage Richard, I wanna see you and your troop on bicycles between Mombasa and Khartoum.
Live and learn; and don’t forget, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
