This letter from Granshaw is so out of order. He has clearly abused his situation and title to influence the masses.
He is well out of order, with this type of propaganda BS singing the beareded ones praises.
This is not about BA vs Other airlines, - this is about making BALPA into a strong, well regarded, professional union with a presence and clout in which we need and can be proud of.
The suggestion of BALPA being an Old boys 'club' rather than anything else, is probably the closest to the truth.
BALPA needs a bloody great shot of adrenaline, for all of our sakes, which employer we work for. The only way I feel this could be achieved is to cleanse the old Toffs etc from the top (what are they all about ?)
We should not forget that BALPA is the membership. They are but only our representatives, it’s a shame that they do not act like it.
PS
And for gods sake: is this day and age, their attempt to communicate electronically with their members is laughable.
BALPAs WEB SITE IS PATHETIC A 5 yr old could produce a better website with facts, figures, and updates (that are current, not 2 mths old) that might just be
USEFULL TO THE MEMBERSHIP!!!
Rant over.
