Manchester Airport - The full picture
Mickyman
I'm not sure what her salary was but I think you're missing the point.
£25K is a drop in the ocean - what these senior managers did at Manchester Airport was actually against the law.
Look at the true cost - they were trying to defend the indefensible at any cost.
Their QC at tribunal cost in the region of £50K, they've been represented a by top class legal team based in London - estimated cost £50K with all their expenses.
Then there's all the cases before this case where the airport settled out of court and made the employees sign compromise agreements - effectively gagging them from discussing anything. This is rumoured to have cost £50K in most cases - that's another £200K !!! then add the amount awarded by Manchester Tribunal.
This is fast approaching £500,000 - down to bad management.
You see where I'm going - this is my council tax.
Someone needs to ask some serious questions - fast.
