Blunt and to the point as always ew.

Look, if the tw4ts at the IAA agreed a 6% deal for 2010 and now realise they have cocked it up then that's their fault. Problem here is that they have a better PR machine than Impact obviously do. That coupled with the fact that most members of the public think we use ping pong bats at work makes the ATCOs look overpaid and greedy. Impact need to decide if they're prepared to go all the way otherwise they will be broken for a very long time.

Good luck on this one guys.

As for 737, forgive him for he knows not what he does. If he knew what he was doing, he'd be an ATCO, not a bus driver with stripes!
