@@razorwestham5949You obviously don’t understand the existence of win-win. Take another listen, this time listen closely, HE makes money (of course!) AND Britain makes money (growth in traffic and air passenger numbers) which feed into local economy. Simple economics.
@VDeeO_Buff so I listened again and he wants a tax abolished that only brings in small money to the country so he can get extra passengers on his airline. Yes that's good business sense eh. Like Clarkson and doesnt want to pay like everyone else pays on inheritance tax that are already wealthy and think they are exempt eh. Nobody likes taxes especially the already wealthy and that's called greed. .Michael oteary big Trump supporter like many millionaires and billionaires that love money and support a rapist racist criminal compulsive liar for their own agenda. Morals have none as long as it brings them in more money.
This is pure quality. A great watch and business delivered in a way anyone can understand. It is people like this that need to be running this country!!
This actually shows how business and economy minded Michael is, he makes Rachel Thieves business acumen look like shes only qualified as a tea lady, forget customer complaints and Rachel from accounts. Maybe he could employ Rachel Thieves as a air hostess/ trolly dolly 😂😂😂
Expletively blunt, from a man who has built the world 5th largest airline. He provides a realist view, pity the clowns in government think they know better!
The increases in national insurance contributions from employers was a huge blow to growth. Huge companies trimming down staff numbers just to combat the huge increases in monthly outgoings
What a great straight-talking CEO. He understands more about resolving the UK economy and growth in his little finger than that woman pretends to know. She has been promoted way beyond her level of competence and ability.
Some Irish are great, straight-talkers like Michael. Many are not. The ones that aren’t Govern, the ones that are are either emigrate or are taxed out of existence by the BS or become Michael O’Leary’s.
I’m not a fan of the airline Ryanair, but their CEO is definitely a breath of fresh air in the debate. He looks at the challenges and opportunities with clear eyes and tells it like it is. I love it. Go Ryanair!
What a clever brilliant man! Of course he’s right because he’s a clever business man! Rachel from accounts is a total fool! Who ever voted labour should be ashamed of yourselves!
A billionaire who's created a company which is paying significant amounts of tax, hiring people who pay significant amounts of tax and who himself pays significant amounts of tax. But hey he's successful and rich....and in 2025 those words aren't allowed in Labour's Broken Britain
This what a CEO should sound like. Straight-talking, no fluff. It's the job of a CEO to make tough decisions for the betterment of the company and its staff.
Sure Brexit has made it slightly more difficult for the airlines but the UK is still there biggest market. He also makes it very clear that the UK only has to cut air passenger duty and investment would follow. So it’s more to do with individual government policy than Brexit itself as a concept. After all, he did say that they are flying above pre-pandemic levels when we were still in the EU, so Brexit can’t have been that much of a problem
Because things like impact assessments need to happen, 10+ plus thousand page documents get written detailing said assessments. Council/government meetings then take place on said documents addressing any changes that may be required. Documents get updated, new meetings with authorities happen, any further possible changes/further meetings for changes until they’re happy. Planning permission then is granted, land and property subsequently needs to be acquired. Existing infrastructure needs to be upgraded or altered. Area of new runway needs to be cleared (buildings need to be deconstructed and cleared). Enough asphalt needs to be sourced for a 1.5-2 mile runway needs to be planned and acquired. Labour for building needs to be planned and acquired. Construction phase happens. Test of the runway. Open. And I’ve probably still missed out some important steps somewhere
There is a man who can foster growth..............we need more like him but in charge, not the career politions we have that are only interested in themselves and honours.
Why isn’t Rachel Rubbish talking to businesses like RyanAir so that she can actually achieve the growth she craves. Cutting services in the UK is heartbreaking.
Because she and her government do not believe in growth. They are lying to us all, as per usual with the left leaning globalist governments we’ve had for nearly the past 3 decades
In a nutshell * Rachel Reeves is rubbish * Third runway is dead cat strategy and won't be happen for decades if at all * Drop APD Repeat this again and again all the way through the press conference.
I love Irish folk. They tell it how it is. Obviously he needs to make profit, for himself and shareholders, but he’s really focused on lowest possible costs. Also appreciate “Derry” on the map. Fck the crown.
Why is there no mention of Manston in this conference, an obvious centre for expansion which will take pressure of the major 'London' airports, and scheduled - if we are to believe what we are told - to re-open in the next four years?
The frightening thing is that many people do not get it or are too apathetic to question it and take action. So-called reality TV is more important to them. What will it take to understand that we are being taken for fools, paying the price for all governments of the 30 years with the gravy chain they have made for themselves at our expense?
I may start watching CEO conferences more often if they're all this entertaining 😂
I totally agree
Gleaming
This Irishman sure does like cutting through the bullish!t 😂
He does also talk plenty himself.
@ChrisPatrick-q6k he's rarely wrong, though.
he dishes it out in good measure too
The best presentation ever. Rachel Rubbish has NO CLUE what she's doing. Here we have a world class CEO schooling her on business.
I was never a fan of Michael O'Leary but he's just gone up in my books!
Just what I was thinking!
Excellent! Thats genuine, No BS and Waffle!!
He’s right about Reeves she hasn’t got a clue..
Yes that's how she got her job at the BOE eh 😅 Taking notice of people only interested in making money for themselves not the country .

Thanks Sky for not putting a time delay on this so Michael could express himself uncensored.
This is pure quality. A great watch and business delivered in a way anyone can understand. It is people like this that need to be running this country!!
O’Leary is a legend
He is blunt. Even rude. But he is a spectacular operator. 200M passengers p.a. He knows what hes talking about. He speaks off the top.
yeah by cost cutting, hes no saint at all
This makes total sense ! Well done .Coming from him , I so wish the Government would listen .
They won't listen to the farmers either and have so obviously got their figures wrong all round.
They guys is impressive, what he has done with Ryanair in notoriously very difficult industry is just remarkable. He talks a lot of sense for sure
Love it, doesn’t beat around the bush. Mr O’Leary for Chancellor 😂
Hands off he is ours - ☘️

like trump, a narcissist

He needs to be in government
hes irish
@ I know I’m Irish myself
@Steven_Healycan still join the UK gov tho
I see Michael o Leary I click
Language some may find offensive and
Michael O'Leary!? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Im not a fan of my countryman, but he speaks sense on this issue.
His autobiography is brilliant. Well worth your time.
Michael tells it like it Is
The Irish, not without their own problems but my god they've been showing us to be utterly incompetent for a while now
Some Irish are great, straight-talkers like Michael. Many are not. The ones that aren’t Govern, the ones that are are either emigrate or are taxed out of existence by the BS or become Michael O’Leary’s.
This makes me proud to be Irish
I’m not a fan of the airline Ryanair, but their CEO is definitely a breath of fresh air in the debate. He looks at the challenges and opportunities with clear eyes and tells it like it is. I love it. Go Ryanair!
I don't fly his airline, but i admire Mr O'Leary's straightforward talking. Keep it up Michael.
Says it as it is - top man.
Michael O'Leary should be the chancellor.
he from the rupiblic of ireland
@Steven_HealyThat doesn’t mean that he can’t be the chancellor. Irish and English can and do stand for elections and vote in both countries.
Get Michael in the same room as Rachel that would be a show worth watching.
Rachel Rubbish 😅😅
Brilliantly done
The UK government hasn’t a clue to run an economy.
I think the dead cat is slumped over the right hand microphone . Rachel Rubbish lol.
O’Leary’s probably tossing and turning in his sleep, mumbling:
“APD… Rachel rubbish… 2035, 2040, 2045, 2050… third runway… bloody Heathrow…”
I find it funny when people who normal slag Ryaniar then suddenly are signing his praises once he says something that vaguely aligns with their views.
What a clever brilliant man! Of course he’s right because he’s a clever business man!
Rachel from accounts is a total fool!
Who ever voted labour should be ashamed of yourselves!
A billionaire who's created a company which is paying significant amounts of tax, hiring people who pay significant amounts of tax and who himself pays significant amounts of tax. But hey he's successful and rich....and in 2025 those words aren't allowed in Labour's Broken Britain

5 years to get ready 😂😂😂
Michael is a wizard. Best of luck to him. I'd love to see what he could do if he wasnt held back with all this taxing
An amazing interview and a new name for Rachel, love it.
Wonderful. Cheers Stuart
Cometh the time cometh the man. Michael for Chancellor.
He should be running the country. He speaks the truth and is not frightened what he says got my vote.
Need more like him !!
I ❤️ Ryanair … I wouldn’t get to my football in Germany without Ryanair …The rest of the airlines to Germany can’t compete with Ryanair price 👍
This is brilliant
Summed Rachel from Accounts in one sentence “ Who hasn’t a clue “
Note that O'Leary is very critical of Brexit and blames Brexit for the divestment in the UK.
Initially yes but time has passed and the EU is no longer worth much more to the UK
Sure Brexit has made it slightly more difficult for the airlines but the UK is still there biggest market. He also makes it very clear that the UK only has to cut air passenger duty and investment would follow. So it’s more to do with individual government policy than Brexit itself as a concept. After all, he did say that they are flying above pre-pandemic levels when we were still in the EU, so Brexit can’t have been that much of a problem
His airline is always under scrutiny for their practices.
Nonetheless, his scrutiny of "Rachel Rubbish" and the labour party is spot on.❤
Spot on.
"The Rubbish is not for turning."
Why does it take so long to build runways? They're basically roads with Nissen huts on either side!
Because things like impact assessments need to happen, 10+ plus thousand page documents get written detailing said assessments. Council/government meetings then take place on said documents addressing any changes that may be required. Documents get updated, new meetings with authorities happen, any further possible changes/further meetings for changes until they’re happy.

Labour for building needs to be planned and acquired. Construction phase happens. Test of the runway. Open. And I’ve probably still missed out some important steps somewhere
"Rachel Rubbish " amazing 👏
What a guy
Never an BS with MoL. Straight to the point and bang on as always.
Mate, this guy makes Nigel Farage look shy. Go on son!😆👍🏻
I now love Ryanair.
finally an honest freeeeekin narrative but delivered hilariously !
Wonderful press conference 👍
He should be UK Chancellor! He is worth any money
hes from ireland
@ I know he is. We have the same economic area with Republic of Ireland.
Now this is somebody who knows his stuff. I didnt know what APD was.....I think he wants it scrapped tho 😂
More CEO need to expose this government, rubbished Reeve’s 😂😂 & sausage starmer. They had a golden opportunity to do good & they have blown it
Musk will have a runway on Mars sooner😂
He’s a clever man, but calling Reeves an idiot, isn’t going to help get rid of APD. That stupid cow will just switch off, for spite.
a vision and a breath of fresh air!!!
No messing with Michael
Get him on the Reform campaign please 🙏
He sounds pissed off as much as his customers
Rachel "Weeds!"
She's great with her personal finances though.
Her personal net worth of £3.9 million is quite impressive.
Probably somebody else is sorting her finances…
Great Irish man. Love him.
There is a man who can foster growth..............we need more like him but in charge, not the career politions we have that are only interested in themselves and honours.
I like this guy... He speaks my type of language, (including the sweary bits).. Can we elect him to run the country!
Love this guy
did i just hear it right, RACHEL RUBBISH!
Awesome honest feedback for a terrible growth plan. What idiots think taxing businesses and people will create growth.
My left ear enjoyed this.
Bro named his parents as soon as he was born

Rachel Rubbish. Brilliant and straight to the point
Can’t we make this guy our Chancellor?
Love it. No bullshit and MOL being him!
@22:51 😂😂 savage!!
She's making the runway for us all to leave 😅
Audio is stuck on the left ear, is there another outlet that covered this conference I'd like to hear it
Obviously he talks about what's in the best interests of Ryanair...the trouble is, it also seems to make national common sense.
Exactly. It’s a win-win, but Gov don’t understand that concept
I’m sensing MoL is mildly frustrated about the rise in APD
And he thinks treating customers like cattle is ok. It's not, but we've all allowed this to happen.
In a nutshell
* Rachel Reeves is rubbish
* Third runway is dead cat strategy and won't be happen for decades if at all
* Drop APD
Repeat this again and again all the way through the press conference.
Rachel Rubbish from accounts
I love Irish folk. They tell it how it is. Obviously he needs to make profit, for himself and shareholders, but he’s really focused on lowest possible costs. Also appreciate “Derry” on the map. Fck the crown.
The air passenger tax rate for 2025 is € 29.40 per passenger per flight in Netherlands. Why haven't we heard him saying Henk Rubbish?
thats why ryanair barely flies to netherlands, and use eindhoven more than Amsterdam. Go to previous years conferences
Why is there no mention of Manston in this conference, an obvious centre for expansion which will take pressure of the major 'London' airports, and scheduled - if we are to believe what we are told - to re-open in the next four years?
Rachel Rubbish lol
Definitely Not number 1 pilots mate they crash land 😂
Rachel Rubbish 😂😂😂😂
So now " Rubbish Rachel from accounts " ?
Straight to the point .the country gets it but the labour party dont
The frightening thing is that many people do not get it or are too apathetic to question it and take action. So-called reality TV is more important to them. What will it take to understand that we are being taken for fools, paying the price for all governments of the 30 years with the gravy chain they have made for themselves at our expense?
