Time to call him out . I would if I knew how . eg Bail out your own companies !! Suspend your Sky Sports subscriptions . If not you will regret lt .
I’m more concerned about feeding my family than calling out a bearded billionaire for whatever reason you think he needs calling out for.
I couldn’t see that as it was all a bit cryptic to me. Maybe it’s the fact I don’t do social media so am unsure what he has done wrong. In fairness, though, Virgin have given my son 10gb of free internet this month to ‘keep in touch with loved ones’, as they put it. And Virgin tv have announced free kids channels as of today too. Maybe the bloke is a s**t for whatever reason. I just don’t know.
Doesn't it all come from the recent reports about the 8 weeks leave unpaid he has asked thousands of staff to take off when, if he was to pay them, it would equate to a tiny fraction of his total personal wealth. At the same time he has been reprted as saying his company may need a govt bail-out. He has been heavily criticised in Parliament. Pity as I always thought he was one of the better capitalist/entrepreneurs .. Sadly I appear to have been mistaken.
Believe that Virgin Media has been owned by Liberty Global from 2013, although Branson still has a 2% interest. He also has a 13% stake in the recently merged Yorkshire, Clydesdale and Virgin Bank. Virgin Airlines is a consortium comprising Air France ( 31%), Delta Airlines (49%) and Bransons Virgin Group (20%). Virgin Rail holds 51% and Stagecoach Group 49% of shares in their train business.
