I find it morally wrong to punish long serving staff for taking industrial action, which is a democratic right, and especially by a CEO who has only been here for a few years and himself being responsible for severe damage to our brand.
Again, here we go with the BASSA 'It's personal' nonsense. It's not! Is it really so hard for you to see that this isn't Willie Walsh doing this on a whim, this is the whole Leadership Team and the board of directors doing this? And changing the leader won't change the policy; believing that it is is BASSAs comfort blanket of denial, so that they don't have to look outside into the big bad world and realise they do have to change.
I'm also interested in learning how the present CEO is damaging our brand? Apart from the T5 debacle from which BA have now recovered, we have better punctuality than ever and a reasonably good ground experience. Our safety record remains solid. The only damage thats occuring to the brand is through the variable onboard service (who's responsible for that?) and the long history or strikes in BA (hmm, who's responsible for that one too, and has been since before WW even joined the company?). You cannot blame Willie for your unions failings.
