SHRAGS,
The COM voted in this president. The COM approved the EBA. The COM bowed on the Jetstar deal. The COM presided over the A330 debarcal (both pay/award and seniority). The COM is involved in the Whispering Campaign against IW.
Forget the life membership, that is only a small example of the COM's inability to listen, but petty regardless.
Now, just to be clear, by the COM I mean the COM as a body. Of course there are individuals, within the COM, that are excellent. They cannot be heard for all the fools. I hope that is what will change if this reform group can get up.
If COM members up for reelection (who are not part of the official reform group) want my vote then they will have to make it clear that they:
- Will not reelect RH.
- Did not recommend the EBA.
- Fought for a better deal re Jetstar.
- Would vote for IW to be president.
I will check the AIPA website, and the Qrewroom election soap box prior to voting to see who else I can add to my vote list.
