Er.. Carnage Matey.

There are several hundred ex BA engineers who were forced out of the company last year, BHX, MAN & BFS to name a few examples.

Technically, yes they were voluntary redundancies, however when faced with a letter TELLING one to take the severance or be sacked it does pong a bit.

Oh, and the trade unions did bu**er all to back up the staff, that is why many have torn up their Amicus membership cards!
