just before she went under, Thomas Cook turned to the government of the United Kingdom for £250m Rescue package. But the government refused, arguing that the troubled travel would not survive company, even with a bailout.

But Lord Knows that was a mistake.

"If we are already saved, could we have paid The Money back, as it was when the government saved the banks. "
