BALPA is everyone who is a member, that includes you (if you are a member), the CC and obviously the people at New Road.
The latter assist with their negotiators by guiding the CCs and the members through the legal turmoils of negotiations and other bits and pieces that go on to try and improve the life of the poor old pilot workforces in all the UK operators where they are recognised.
At the end of the day, it is the membership of the company that you work for that dictates what goes on. New Road is not to blame, only the members themselves.
Any vote that a member makes in the end is because of his (or her)own personal circumstances and views, and it will not necessarily be those of yours.
