In what way was BA's original proposal fair? WW has clearly shown how much he values our agreements by completely ignoring them. Do you think any of their proposals would protect existing crew? Sign any of their proposals, sit down and wait a year or two when they will be coming back for more.

It is not incorrect that many of our long-range trips were crewed fully with regular cabin crew and less lucrative trips as JFK and BOM left LHR with minimum crew. Selfish thinking for the moment but not worrying about the long-term consequences of their actions. Non-striking crew and volunteer crew have done nothing but prolonging this dispute. If you hadn't reported for duty, or agreed to train to become cabin crew, our management would have been forced to negotiate because there wouldn't have been any crew available.
