Some cracking posts, read with interest. Firstly, when these draconian and totally kneejerk security measures were brought into place, why weren't flight/cabin crew noted as working groups worthy of special consideration due to all the OBVIOUS points already mentioned ? For SH crew (particularly the girlies) the last 10 days or so have been a complete pain in the GM! Secondly, what have our employers been doing do further our cause with COBRA/DFT etc? Thirdly, why has it taken c10 days for BALPA to publically criticise the current farcical situation?
Many refces to El Al and their amazingly robust and obviously EFFECTIVE security policy - why are we not copying them as many other previous posters on this and other threads have suggested?!...............Oh, I forgot, silly, silly me!!! The rights of a tiny majority of the BRITISH population come before the rights and safety of the overwhelming majority of the BRITISH population. 'PROFILING' is desciminatory!
Political Correctness is a cancer which is running rampant through our society along with an obsession with 'reality' (what the ****s real about it?) TV and instant fame and success.............Meanders off topic, time to visit jetblast.......hangs head in shame...........
