Ireland’s Parliament Votes In Favour Of Aer www.crownandanchorlv Lingus Share Sale IRELAND’S parliament last month voted in favor of selling off the country’s share in the Aer Lingus airline as part of a 1.4 billion euro ($1.53bn) takeover bid by International Airlines Group, the parent company of British Airways. The coalition government secured the majority backing it needed in Parliament for sale of the stake, with lawmakers voting in favor after two days of heated debate. The Irish government had retained a 25 percent stake in Dublin-based Aer Lingus http://www.facebook.com/crownandanchorlv after it was publicly floated on the Irish Email: [email protected] and London Stock Exchanges in 2006.

IAG chief Willie Walsh has been woo- ing the Irish government for months in his attempt to buy out Aer Lingus. If the deal goes ahead, the government would receive some 350 million euros ($380m). Ryanair, which owns about 30 percent of Aer Lingus, said it would consider “any offer on its merits, if and when an offer is made.” The proposed takeover also faces months of regulatory scrutiny from com- petition authorities in Ireland, Britain and the European Union. Tony Blair Takes New Role In Fighting Anti-Semitism FORMER Prime Minister, Tony Blair, is taking a new role in combatting anti- Semitism in Europe, days after stepping down as the international community’s Mideast envoy. Blair revealed last month he will chair the European Council on Tolerance and Reconciliation, a group which champions legislation and dialogue on tolerance. Writing in The Times newspaper, Blair and businessman Moshe Kantor argue that racism in the name of religion must be tackled with new laws. They cited a report by the Kantor Center at Tel Aviv University, which found 2014 was one of the worst years in the past decade for anti-Semitic incidents. Blair quit, leaving a post that had be- gun with great hope but which struggled to deliver in its quest to promote peace between Israel and the Palestinians.
