Re: Imminent strike at RAF Shawbury?
Crab, I realise that this is a rumour network, but I think you should be sure of your facts before posting. There is a background in this case of the management deliberately splitting the negotiations along the old 'divide and conquer' principles. MW BALPA members were actually sent away from the collective bargaining table on a point of procedure, then settled on their present deal with the threat of redundancies hanging over them. Some of the MW brethren have grandfather rights from previous contracts, so the playing field is not level to start with. (btw I was offered, and declined, a job at MW with FBH, as they do not pay anywhere near enough to live in inflated Hampshire, imho).
