McDonnell comments on reports about a state aid package for Flybe

John McDonnell MP, Labour’s Shadow Chancellor, commenting on reports about a state aid package for Flybe, said: 

"Bailing out a company through a tax cut across the industry is not the way forward. Working with the company and unions the government should look at targeted assistance to support routes judged on economic, environmental and social grounds."
