With that sort of attitude, it is clear paddyinuk is truly a part of the problem. He/she can complain all he/she likes about pay and conditions but I am certain BA's pay and conditions are much better than no pay and no conditions. And that must surely be what many will soon face? BA will never try to sack someone for going on strike. There are far subtler ways of trimming a workforce that appears hell bent on the demise of its employer.
