I am sure all will become clear but I believe John Frohnsdorff is standing with a view to unseating CD ie a 'stalking horse'.. .. .A manifesto will be published shortly but to summarise the situation JF is standing on a 'Hand back BALPA to the members' platform and the aim is to find & appoint a highly qualified professional.. .. .I believe I am correct in saying that JF will not take a penny piece as General Secretary and will stand down immediately his and his supporters aims have been met.. .. .It is vitally important that all BALPA members take an interest in what is and has been happening. BA members, incidentally, comprise less than 50% of total BALPA membership.. .. .If anybody cares to do some digging they will find that the internal management of BALPA has been a disgrace. The financial control or lack of is a case in point. And has anybody else noticed how the Legal committee has been recently reorganised......at last?. .. .IF CD was running an airline the employees would have been baying for his blood long ago.. .. .The evidence is there if one cares to look.. .. .I expect better for my money.
