Tight Slot, my inference that you had apparently apportioned blame was based on the criticism of ground handling safety standards without making any other sweeping comments on the safety standards of other airport sectors for example airport operators or, dare I say it, cabin crew - visiting or resident.
Incidentally I would be interested to know the basis of your assumption that ground handling safety standards have fallen - I think you will find statistically that the reverse to be the case despite ever increasing - and valuable - regulations and legislation.
