Eventually Bill Murray just smack's the annoying bloke in the gob. I've tried to explain that this has got nothing to do with fair or right or morals. The seven do not work for bmir! If you want to challenge the terms of their employment with bmi then do it through the appropriate channel which I would think is BALPA. They're a trade union and should know about these things. Remember that the transferees are probably members and entitled to protection as much as any other member. If you're not a member or you don't want to do anything about it then stop whining.
