  1. Quote Faury laughs when asked about the possibility of moving production out of Britain. “We want to grow in the UK. We will be willing to do more than we are doing to today, to have a win-win for the UK and Airbus.” Not a 'negative spin', but context. If you read the whole article it is clear that what he is saying is that he would be happy to 'grow in the UK' given an appropriate operating environment, for instance winning a new military helicopter contract in return for guaranteeing they are built in the UK. However, he also says that they operate in a Global environment, and things are subject to change. ( He specifically mentions China as a growtrh area, but remember, Airbus has already moved some wing production to China, so expansion there would not benefit the UK manufacturing plants ).
