Exactly. Virgin only sell something like 70 copies of the Mail a day so not worth their bother, best to use the retail space for something else. People buy their copies at WH Smith or read online. Virgin also sold the sister paper Mail on Sunday which supported Remain so the Brexit conspiracy theory is wrong.
Maybe rather than let the press talk about the Virgin East Coast bail-out they're distracting people to this non-story whilst trying to win over progressive customers and staff who previously might have favoured nationalisation.
