    Peter Bodkin should be aware that the trade unions and the Dail opposition parties are essentially one and the same in this context. The only real reason why the opposition (both Fianna Fail and Sinn Fein) claim to be opposed to this sale of Aer Lingus is in order to curry favour with the trade-unionist barons in Ireland, just as Fianna Fail did in the old days when the union barons were allowed to run the country, and run it into the ground. It appears that there would be no change in this disastrous approach from Fianna Fail, should they get into power, under the leadership of Micheal Martin.

    Couldn’t agree more John B, it was Fianna Fáil who privatised Aer Lingus in the first place.
    They will get into bed with any faction, no matter how bad, if they think it would give them any chance of getting back into Government. A despicable Party that should be consigned to history.
