Actually, Sir Alan is some sort of enterprise advisory to the government so I think the government do very well to concern themselves over it! I don't think he ought to be, given the example he sets in his dealings with recruitment and employees unless the government want to align themselves not just with taking more from the poor to give to the better off as they already have done, but with the bigotry, prejudice, dishonesty and bullying that SAS seems to think is only natural in business. Perhaps it is, but the government should be setting an example for change.
Time to give Branson a chance, I think! I've no idea if he would be any better, but let him show himself anyway...
