I have watched this debate from afar and have sensibly (probably) held off from contributing but my nausea has reached such an extent that I feel compelled to contribute.I have been a Balpa member since 1976 and this encompasses my (fairly) recent tenure as a trainer with easy prior to moving on to bluer pastures.Can I state catagorically that there is only one language that will register with the easy hierarchy and that is total solidarity and commitment to an unwavering and unmoveable support for your union representatives backed up by significant membership levels.The management that oppose you are by far the most morally bankrupt in the industry.NSF,you were not noticeably vocal and supportive to the previous incumbents of the cc when you had the chance but better late than never,
good luck and b/rgds
