You say that you are "considering you position...in relation to BALPA membership". Given that you are seeking information from us, the fee paying members, perhaps you would share what elements of joining you are still considering, so we are better able to decide what we feel we would like to share with you, other than (unintentionally) the benefits of our union fees.
You implied that you have some moral objection to unionised actions when you stated that “Personally, I just fundamentally disagree with the principle. I suppose it's just not right” however that seems somewhat at odds to the following post that you made on another thread back in Oct 05 entitled “Balpa”.
“I believe that they (BALPA) have been a big help to crews and potential crews at Monarch as they have been negotiating on their behalf. So it's not all BA. I'm off to an airline soon and not sure if it's worth the 1%. I think i'll sit with the IPA”
So Which is it? do you "fundamentally disagree" with unionised action despite your membership of the IPA, or do you still think that it's "not worth the 1%" but are quite happy to ask us to pay it on your behalf and seek the information via PPRUNE?
