It's not much to do with that. Swissair was a well-run airline. They invested all the profits in a load of other crap airlines, such as Sabena...
So what about alcohol?
I think that's a bit specious, Pete. If you can nationalise an industry or company in trouble, you can do the same to one that isn't. It's the...

Mr. Biscuit: I entirely agree with you. You can't have it both ways. Either the profits are where the sales are, or where the company is...
I know it's a "reasonably priced car" but can't they get something that doesn't look so vile and that no one would ever want to own, and if they...
Better still, use a spam email address. I have one for this exact purpose (a gmail one is good). Then you just never open it, or set it up in you...
