DFO letter to the HKAOA 16th November 2001
The only person to use the word "Scab" in this whole sorry dispute is Captain Barley.
Captain Barley wrote to the HKAOA on 16th November 2001, in a letter headed "Industrial action".
He uses the word "Scab" three times and the final time is in this passage.
A "scab" label will have long lasting repercussions for the individuals concerned.
So, there you have it, straight from the horses mouth.
At no time has the HKAOA used the term Scab and certainly never will.
There is a recruitment ban. Anyone joining after Oct 9th 2001 is blacklisted. The ban is an IFALPA ban.
