Headbutt,
For many years I've fought the battle with many people over BALPA. Last week, after a good hearted and reasoned discussion with a very enthusiastic BALPA rep, I decided to join. He was able to make me realise where things were going, what the benefit would be and that perhaps the other issues I have were not really so bad. Now this is a personal choice i have made, others may yet have to make it, but it is not made any easier by loud mouthed anonymous tossers like you shouting the odds.
Leave the recruitment of new members to the professionals, they do a great job. Your just going to alienate people with your childish drivel !
