Ryanair Criticises National Women's Council for being anti-fun & anti-charity

 
 
 
 
Ryanair, Ireland’s favourite airline, today (12th Nov) criticised the anti-fun National Women’s Council of Ireland for lacking any charity or Christmas cheer after their unfounded attack on Ryanair’s 2010 Charity Calendar in which Ryanair’s female cabin crew volunteered to appear in, helping to raise €300,000 over the last 3 years for Angels Quest, the Dublin Simon Community and ‘KIDS’ charities.
 
Ryanair said it would continue to fight for the rights of girls (and boys) to take their clothes off if they chose to, adding that celebrating beauty has never been ‘old-fashioned’ as suggested by the anti–fun do-gooders in the NWCI.
 
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said,
 
“The National Women’s Council clearly don’t like fun or charity.  Ryanair’s 2010 calendar is a cabin crew initiative which our people volunteer for to raise huge sums of money for charity.  It is unfair of the anti-fun, anti-charity, brigade at the NWCI to accuse Ryanair or our people of a ‘lack of imagination’ when we have produced one of Europe’s most popular calendars while raising €300,000 for charity in just three years.
 
“Ryanair will continue to support the rights of all girls, and boys, to take their clothes off if they want to – especially if it helps a worthy cause like disabled children”.
