Airbus have always been more than willing to rant about Brexit, even
when they aren’t being prodded by the Government.
Airbus’s Senior UK Vice President Katherine Bennett let slip a key
nugget of information live on Sky News this afternoon as part of their
anti-No Deal media blitz. When challenged over whether “the government
put you up to this,” after initially deflecting the question, Bennett
confirmed that the Government had indeed asked them to up the ante on
Project Fear:
“They did say could you make sure that you make clear the potential
impact of a No Deal, and we are happy to do that because No Deal is
potentially going to be catastrophic for us.”
Surely their enthusiasm for relentless remoaning at politically
convenient moments can’t be anything to do with the astonishing sum of
EUR64,172,543 Airbus have received from the EU in just the last five
years.
Almost EUR13 million of taxpayers money was funnelled their way last
year alone. Is it any wonder that they like the EU so much – Wowzer!
