Just remind me how ATC operate inter unit? Something called an MoU?
Two tier pension scheme....bad news.
Why? Legally NATS cannot force you out of CAAPS.
Our own pension...which we will be worse offer under.
And the option is what? Let the current scheme fold? I keep hearing this garbage about the company having plenty of spare cash. Ask anyone involved in finance or projects and they'll tell you how things really are. There is a global downturn and flights are tailing off (however until airlines start cancelling new aircraft orders I think this is a blip) but this problem arose before then.
Future t & c's.....which we will shafted over if we vote this in.
In your opinion.
The general principle....of top level management getting bonuses and payrises, and before you start going about PCGs etc...I DONT GIVE A F***...it is no excuse for 13% payrises whilst you expect everybody else to get less than RPI.
Apples and oranges cannot be compared.

I now expect you to defend your position,
See above. One thing I don't want is to put my pension at risk because of some other peoples 'fears' and misperceptions.

You've still not given a single hard fact as to why no. Answers on a postcard to the usual address please.
