I expected to get home yesterday to find the TV news full of resigning politicians, GKN having confirmed that it will sell its share of Agusta-Westland to Finmeccanica. But no, it just about rated a couple of lines on teletext. How times have changed - nobody bats an eyelid at the last vestiges of our helicopter industry passing out of British control, and the politicians are more interested in telling us we are eating too much junk food!
Sorry if this is a bit OT, my excuse is that Westland was founded by Petters.
