It would be nice to see a copy of the new proposals.
I have seen the CC 'proposals' however that hasn't been translated into contracts.....yet.
Regarding pilots, from Balpa comms this afternoon, the company are after a permenant change in T's and C's as well a reduction in MPE. No proposals or the fleet plan are public yet.
In the UK you can be made redundant on mass and re-hired on new T's & C's. They can't make you redundant and then hire someone new. You would have grounds for unfair dismisal.
If no agreement is reached or if Balpa stopped negotiations BA could and dare I say it will end existing pilot contracts and re-issue new ones. If no-one accepted the new contract I suppose you would have a 'mexican' standoff.
Obviously what came out JM and AB's mouth's over the last month was complete b0ll0x
