Branson is hardly likely to sabotage his own business and a few years ago he said he was going build oil refineries.

Dick Branson speaks with forked tongue.
But I thought you were a big fan of VBA and Virgin is Richard, Skol.

I also thought a $1 a barrel reduction had a big gain to your airline bottom line. We are back to $80 a barrel and the world is awash with oil, hmm. Bloody OPEC winding back the tap when it gets to $70 and opening it, when it gets to $80, if it gets to $90 and the taps fully open, ouch.

Richard needs cheap fuel to fly profitabe. It looks like he is hitting the panic button and rightly so, cause the next button he will push will be the eject button. Without cheap fuel, airlines are going to crash and burn
