NATSNOT FUNNY...
The management line regurgitated once again....
A few points. NATS is NOT in financial crisis. Mr. Everitt says so, CAA ERG says so. Read the report. Using NATS' own worst case figures it is ONLY £27m down on low traffic growth projections INCLUDING Sept 11th. In fact it appears that there may be upwards of £50m available, depending on how you juggle the figures.
ATCO wages may well be the biggest outgoing the company has. The ATCOs are also by far the biggest Money Earners the company has. No ATCOs, no revenue. This is apparently now a commercial company. ATCOs are not being paid what they are worth. Time to pay up.
It also bears saying again. We've already made OUR contribution to cost saving measures in the form of a pensions holiday for NATS management. Don't forget that.
You have exercised your democratic right. Others will do the same, but the majority will disagree with you. Respect their rights.
