In this day and age, when pilot T&C's are being decimated left, right and centre, we need pan-European (at least) cooperation, not infantile, xenophobic, cross-border bickering.
Someone will always be top of the T&C's tree and assisting the defence of those conditions, wherever they might be found, is ultimately doing us all a great service.
While IB may very well need some re-jigging of their business model, the same is certainly true of the BA business model, is it not, certainly if LGW is considered....
Our enemy is not our fellow pilots.
