Unite the Union today warned the British Airlines Pilots Association (BALPA) that it was not acceptable for it to take a "neutral" stance over its members being used as possible strike-breakers in the dispute between British Airways and its cabin crew.
BALPA does not own me. It does not tell me what I can & can't do. It advises me as to what action it feels is best for its membership. In this case it is quite wisely remaining neutral and giving me the right to make the decision myself. And very enpowering it is too.....

But Unite, GMB & their lefty buddies don't actually want enpowered workers. They want workers that they can order around scare, belittle and lie to. Whilst all the time collecting the union dues.

Spouting garbage like that contained in this missive and the previous "s**b" publication just makes more and more want to volunteer (including many non cabin crew Unite members!)
