Let's remember that only applied to Cityflier Mk One. You changed the rules for BACX and BAConnect, and the experience level of CityFlier Mk 2 shows how much people are expecting this time around, as so many people have left. Of course, you still have the nerve to demand LHS jobs for your mainline pals in Cityflier Mk 2, but you withhold reciprocity - as usual!
CityFlyer Mk 1 was the only operation merged into BA Mainline. BACX/Connect was never merged. The rules were not changed, merger rules simply did not apply to a non-merged operation. The LHS jobs in CityFlyer Mk2were a condition of the scope agreement attached to the use of the 16(?) specified RJ100s which pre-dates CityFlyer Mk2.

it's irrelevant whether BA pilots deserve or get support from other pilot groups. Human nature being what it is, no-one will ever feel sorry for the City Financial sector redundancies, and nor will they for BA (or any) airline pilots who are perceived to be overpaid.
That's one thing we can agree on.
