:(

The main thing that most folks missed is BA will no longer be a UK Registered company ... but will become Spanish registered .. :(

I don't think I said they wouldn't be trading as BA. I think I was leaning towards the fact that they will no longer be a registered British company. Hence the 'family silver' quip. :-?

I wonder if that will exempt them from U.K. laws and/or previous union agreements ? :-/

If they trade in Britain, they will be subject to British law. Union agreements? Who knows, who cares?
