Bransons interview.

Richard Branson was interviewed on Radio Five live today ( 7am 27/8/12), his main point was that First Groups financial figures do not add up, and in his opinion F.G. will not be able to meet their promised payments to the governments coffers. The program also suggested that F.G. would need to attract an extra million passengers to generate the extra income required.
The labour party are asking the government for a debate and to reconsider their decision, this seems unlikely as the government are pledged to take the highest bid.
It was also mentioned that the petition to retain Virgin was now 130,000 signatures. Its all getting very interesting.
