Airwise News: Germany's Glos Threatens EADS Over Airbus Cuts

QUOTE (Airwise News)
The German government has expressed concern that Germany could be made to bear the brunt of a savings program at EADS, which has been hit by delays to the new Airbus A380 superjumbo.

Details of EADS's cost-saving program are due to be presented to the company's workforce on February 20.

Unions fear EADS will cut up to 8,000 jobs in Germany, where the aircraft manufacturer employs about 22,300 people. Up to 8,000 supplier jobs are also considered to be under threat.

This is going to be horrific!
Only mention of German job losses and, so far, no mention of French. (surprise, surprise)
Can see a compromise here where no German or French jobs are lost, when they realise
that firing Brits is much easier and will be met by very little resistance!
