Stick with facts........there was no vote in Ryanair regarding the recon campaign.
So..
The presentation was that BALPA entered its campaign after being requested to do so by FR pilots..
... BALPA left the pilots that were requesting their assistance to their own devices and gave them no support ?
hmm.. doesn't sound like a group i would want to be fighting for better T*&C's for me.
How much dignity and respect is there in paying 1% of your income for representation when that representation deserts you when you ask for representation!
Or..
did BALPA listen to the requests for representation and campaign for dignity and respect and decide, in the face of overwhelming victory, to desert the pilots requesting representation !
hmm.. doesn't sound like a group i would want fighting my corner !
Or..
did BALPA enter into a campaign only to find that there wasn't the majority support for representation that they would have hoped for and performed an abrupt volte-face?
