The Virgin Strike Thread II

[TightSlot]

PPRuNe doesn't see this, or indeed any other thread as being personal i.e. an XXX vs. XXX discussion - it is instead a discussion of the issues arising from the upcoming strike(s).

As always, we strive hard to keep off the personal and play the ball not the player. It is worth pointing out that, so far at least, the Virgin Strike threads have been characterized by courteous, intelligent and informed debate between people that have widely different beliefs and hold very different positions. This has not always been the case with previous such threads with other airlines, and that this is to the credit of All thread contributors, on whatever side of the dispute, whether Cabin Crew or not.




P.S. - Just a heads-up - sometime soon, with the first strike imminent, I'll close this thread and re-start a Mark III version: For housekeeping reasons only, as the topic may attract a lot of attention, and too long a thread can make this difficult.

The next 3-4 days may be difficult for many of you - So let's sign off the last few peaceful hours just as Dan Rather sometimes did - "Courage"
