I cannot believe roundwego and others comments here. I think that you will concede that British Airways have always done fairly well when the union has taken on the management. We are not taking on the Oil companies, that is a management problem. What we need to do is declare to our wonderful management that we are no longer willing to accept paltry pay rises, frozen allowances etc etc. God forbid I am not a militant but I am fed up with being taken for a ride. Of course working to rule will work. Taking our time out of immersion suits, refusing RRTs, refusing to work days off. I guarantee within days there would be crisis meetings between the oil companies and our management. Come on BALPA lets get some kind of united front.
