ornithopter - nice post, but:
Why should our promised deferred pay be taken from us, when BA are a profitable company and can afford, at least, to give us a fair, reasonable deal?
Because WW thinks that dealing with a split BALPA full of rowing Nigels who are life committed to a seniority list is like taking candy from a baby.
Fair??? Reasonable deal?? Boo hooo, you better get 100% united pretty quick and toughen yourselves up!! This is classic union busting, not a sunday school cake sale.
He once said dealing with IALPA was like clubbing baby seals, as it turned out his club wasn't big enough for the daddy Walrus he created!!!
His motivation? Not the money or bonuses, for him it's a game, a sport.
Like Predator.
