You're dead right, we can see from the high court transcripts in which the judge ruled in Virgin's favour on a technicality, Virgin wet leased aircraft at £250k per day in order to break any strike. That would have been illegal.

If BALPA members aren't concerned about how that precedent would emasculate them in the future then they should be.

If BALPA do Industrial Action it’s planning is precise and the stoppage complete. As a member, I rest easily in that knowledge.

Leave no stone unturned
