A Bit Clearer
Reading through some of the postings from pro-BASSA/Unite folks has clarified to me part of the problem between the union and BA. There is a histrionic quality to the CC arguments including use of symbols from WW2 and comparing their situation to those of individuals persecuted by totalitarian governments which are inaccurate analogies and in poor taste at best.
If CC want to negotiate a fair agreement with BA it needs to be done without ranting and raving - basing arguments instead on common interests. If they cast themselves into the role of martyrs they will gain no public support and continue to make decisions which are ultimately self-defeating such as the 12 days of Christmas strike fiasco and now the internet acting out nonsense.
Please CC - try to negotiate this from the standpoint of rationality, don't take the decisions by BA as somehow personally reflecting against you, and try and take a good long hard look at your position taking into account the current status of the economy. Otherwise your arguments come across as long winded screeds with no particular merit which are a reflection of narcissistic self-importance.
