Rat 5
Couldn't care less about RYR really.
EZ has formal union recognition so there are rules about them changing contract terms without consultation.
Balpa and the ECA have virtually finished an agreement which joins all the EU unions together in a different way to IFALPA, whereby a memeber of VC, for example, is also a FULL member of Balpa if he/she works for a UK company. The reverse is also true of course. All the EU unions seem to be in favour (even the SNPL!).
This will mean huge membership percentages within EZ - bring it on!
