BALPA in or out?

I've been employed for 2 years now with a good outfit and am considering joining BALPA.

However at over £400pa it seems a bit steep. Alright discounted in the first 2 years and some tax concessions.

Obviously there will be those of you who cry that other people are paying for my good T&C's etc. But as they are already good then won't most of my subs go to help other airlines? (it that bad for the industry? probably not?)

I am generally against trade unions but feel that with a command on the horizon then it might be a good bet.

As an F/O with a young family to support etc etc is it worth it?
