In response to Crunchy, the Single Fleet at LGW wasn't exactly implemented overnight, ALL BA Crew knew it was happening but because it didn't affect the "Golden Runways" and you were unaffected it was allowed to happen. Another example of this has been the 11 month temp crew, again BASSA did little to allow this trojan horse onto the field.
I put it to all BA Crew, had BASSA gone to BA in the previous few years and negotiate a more sensible set of T&Cs then you may not now be left standing on top of a very big cliff.
In response to the "you can't take £500/month off me" posters, how about seeing it as having been paid that much over the odds (see CAA Crew Costs if you dn't believe me) for the past 25 years. I don't want to see anyone out of pocket, but I know so many crew that are intelligent, qualified people who must have known that this situation couldn't go on forever.
