I don't think the proposal is bad - just a few more CONTRACTUALLY BINDING AGREEMENTS are needed for me...

A lot of the routes that you want protecting with "contractually binding agreements" are lucrative because of the exchange rate of sterling against the local currency, following your thinking the only way to guarantee these levels of earnings would be to be paid in GBP. What would you suggest if the exchange rates change again, as they surely will, in the future?

I'm sorry but nothing in life is certain, except death and taxes of course. I think the only hope we have now is to accept the deal before it gets any worse. I'm sure that if we do this and make it work full staff travel will come back eventually.

The only thing left after that will be to fight for the long overdue revolution at BASSA HQ.
