Interesting media article shakealeg and it is just that a blend of truth, agenda's fiction and nonsense.
Firstly they were never sacked, they where removed from their position's. May seem like a play on words, however, it was stated on the day they were removed from their position, that they would be allowed to take up suitable positions elsewhere in the company.
because replacements have already been lined up for the vacant IFS positions
So that would be why the CCM position is currently on the IVN system?
Do you think TD makes these decisions in isolation, the orders for this came from the top, as indeed all orders to sort out the mess in IFS. Yes morale is chronically low, part of that is the mismanagement at all levels, starting at the top and definitely including those that were removed. It had to be done to move forward, simple as that.
