Just to put the record straight in
TacOn 's post.......the Overseas Branch were effectively paying a CONSIDERABLE [yes, that IS shouting] more than their fair share of the AFAP budget at the time and asked for "representative taxtion"; less fees in proportion or greater vote. The nail in the coffin prior to departure was the then President telling us that we had to go out in support of the Cabin Crew -SP drama. That ensured a virtual unanimous vote for departure.
G'day
