Well guys and gals...

Slightly different angle to this mess...

This time last year, BA were gleefully telling the UK out-stations that they were replacing their staff with a handling agent. In effect an OS on the ground. Cheaper, 'efficient' and a lower costbase... and as far as the passenger was concerned, business as usual...

Minimum wage, no benefits and basically no experienced staff apart from the few BA staff members that moved over...

This philosophy is now 'creeping' in elsewhere in BA, albeit on a different scale and at a different pace... Over time, who knows what will happen.

No one jumped up and down for the regions and look at the mess they are in now or are they
