Ask the rest of BALPA members??!!!
What a load of BS! Why? 1. The rest of the BALPA members will be totally screwed if our fellow BA colleagues loose/step down on this one. 2. The rest of our fellow members have so far stepped down as soon as there has been a conflict or squeeze on T&Cs (thats why the rest of us "enjoy" lower T&Cs if you have not noticed) so someone might as well use the funds for something useful!
I say - Good luck to all of you BA guys and gals (and to the rest of us!!)!
In ezy we are facing very similar issues on the continent. I think its about time we stop "keeping the powder dry" or we'll soon see ourselves working without sick pay, pension and union representation!!!
