This is exactly the point! The unions have been completely out managed by these experienced commercially minded hatchet men. Either the unions need to harden their stance (stable door - horse %^*%$£ off) or we need a new union, not unions. The only way to deal with these fat cats is to expose them to grief, like industrial action. Even the threat of it will have the airlines quaking, they are on a knife edge as it is, if we all take a Monday or Friday off they will too realise why the Heathrow CTB cash should have come to NATS. For its staff and pensions. How much would the airline group lose if ATC stopped for 24 hours?
