Time for Another Post

Having just caught up on all the posting on here I thought it was time to add another. Never got any answers the last time I posted so see what happens this time.
1) The extensive postings about "copying "entertaining missives" (and I use that phrase in its broadest term) from one site to another makes me wonder that in this day and age if BASSA didn't want them reproduced elsewhere there are ways and means of stopping it. However it is a two way street and "leaking" what was marked as a strictly private and confidential document, to its members did nothing but add to the confusion way back in the heady days when this episode was all "kicking off". After all it was only a draft! And sending out text messages to member says "Check you mail - urgent update" just added to the fire!.
2) The constant "Personal" attacks on members of the board of BA, especially WW in respect of what he is trying to do - perhaps if one took the time to read what his role is all about at British Airways as well as seeing a copy of his "actual contract" as CEO of BA - all of which are in the public domain - one would see that its not a "personal vendetta against cabin crew"
3)The people that have posted in respect of BASSA not acting in the best interests of their members - have you done anything about it. Working for a firm of solicitors that has specialist employment lawyers I am more than happy to point you in the right direction as to what you can and cant do

and I guess finally, as the partner of a BA crew member with many friends at BA, the consensus amongst them now seems to be well "what ever happens will happen - lets wait and see"

I wonder once all the "FACTS" are known and the bickering stops will it all be as bad as some make out. (Am sure that will not go down well in some parts).

Finally though I would like to add a thank you for keeping me entertained and updated with the going on in the world of BA cabin crew.
