The 'chancer', following the treatment that was allegedly meted out to him by Ann Brown (the now head of cabin services of another airline) spent time in the Priory.

The action was self funded, no costs are awarded by Employment Tribunal so to make an accusation of being a 'chancer' is unfounded and malicious.

During the hearing Ann did not appear as British Airways refused to call her, even though they admitted that they know where she is so that the could have served a summons if they had so wished.

A Fleet Manager who worked with the claimant gave evidence as to the alleged culture and atmosphere in the airline, as well as on specific treatment that she allegedly witnessed between Ann Brown and the claimant.

A cabin crew TU rep was also present who allegedly witnessed an episode whereby the claimant was publicly abused in a open forum by Ann Brown. For a BA cabin crew rep to stick up for a manager it must've been something serious.

DUring the trial, the acting head of Inflight Services had his testament discredited due to his 'confusion' about a part of his evidence according to the summing up of the claimant's barrister.
