In fact BALPA are so “neutral” that one of their senior reps, a Captain, is on the first course. We don’t call that “neutral”, we call it callous, spineless and a disgrace to decency. It is tempting to name this individual but BASSA will not be joining this particular Captain and his “union” in the gutter.
BASSA are obviously perplexed that the BALPA Rep is trying to help stop the company that he and his members work for from going bankrupt. The concept of helping a company when it is in dire straights is clearly a novel and confusing one to BASSA. Unions should throw toys out of the pram not back into it. Helping one's company? Disgraceful.
