Shown here is an Airbus A220-300 aircraft. Tom Enders, CEO of Airbus, says the future of the company in the UK will be imperiled if Britain crashes out of the European Union. Airbus

Skift Take: The boss of the European aerospace group Airbus told Britons to ignore "Brexiters' madness” that the company was too settled in Britain to leave. Certainly Airbus's 14,000 workers in the UK may face at least gradual job losses if a botched Brexit made it more difficult to manufacture aircraft parts in the UK than elsewhere. But maybe Airbus was playing politics, too.
