More censoring

Oh dear and The Moderator is making it worse for himself over on BF. Remember his earlier post re PCC?

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to respectfully remind you all that any thread/post relating to an alternate Trade Union body which claims to represent crew, will be automatically deleted from the BASSA Forum.

Anyone reposting thread/posts about this topic will have their posting rights automatically suspended.

The forum is constantly monitored.

In light of what we as a Union are facing, threads/posts realting to this issue CANNOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES be allowed on your Unions Forum.

PLEASE NOTE - THIS WILL BE THE ONE AND ONLY NOTICE ON THE SUBJECT.

The "alternate" body that thinks they can represent crew is considered a joke, is libellous, defamatory, and if not more importantly, is blatantly being encouraged by the company, hence the reason for us not allowing it on the forum.

WE THANK-YOU, our members, for your continued support of the Union, your input to the forum and for your understading in this matter.

Well a couple or people dared to venture....

The first time I heard of it was a very very vague mention by Lizanne at the last meeting. It was so vague infact that I was curious to find out more about what she was referring to. Perhaps the best plan would have been to actually discuss it so we could all be aware of the danger this poses!

No offence mod....but the first (and only time) I have ever heard of PCCC was in a BASSA news article on the main page of the BASSA website.

But you are now telling us that we can't ask anything about it on the BASSA forum, set up for BASSA members to exchange ideas, seek guidance etc?

Do you not think it may create a BIGGER problem with people going elsewhere to find out what all of this is about? Is it not better for us to be able to discuss it on here, as adults, and with imput from our reps?
And the Moderator's well-judged reply......
I dont have a problem with people discussing BASSA issues and exchanging ideas relating to crew lifestyle, however what I will DEFINITELY NOT ALLOW is discussion about a non-entity body that is instigated/launched at the companies behest with the expressed and only desire to undermine/destroy BASSA : YOUR UNION!

If you wish to inquire about it, please contact the Office through the appropriate channels.

They will not be getting ONCE OUNCE of coverage on this forum.

That is my final word on the matter.

THE MODERATOR
Oh dear, they really can't see the walls collapsing around them, can they? Utter denial of all facts.
