Here were go again with the 'poaching' of pilots. Rex are usually the ones to wheel out this term from time to time.

It just makes me laugh how hypocritical anyone (usually business owners) who say this really are.
Back in 90s business owners were all about 'free market supply', 'shake a tree and a pilot falls out', 'plenty more people will work for less' to justify low salaries. But now the labour market has turned against them, and suddenly they've all become a bunch of socialists with people 'poaching pilots'. You can't have it both ways.
