mmmm You choose to disregard the fact that BA has restructured continuously since 9/11; earlier if you include the regions.
Make no mistake --- BA pilots are already on very competitive contracts. eg few, if any, Virgin/KLM/AF/SWISS etc pilots transfer to BA. Yes, most new joiners are from LCCs, but even so the benefits are very marginal.
The post you quoted rightly pointed out that BA makes twice the profit of ALL the other IAG airlines combined - and that they have taken bailouts/loans, and not announced redundancies! Nothing unreasonable or nonfactual.
