With respect, IMO you have contributed some slightly pompous nuggets regarding what you think your fellow commenters need to do:
You need to remove yourself from the perk hang up.
you really do need to detach the staff travel issue from the dispute itself.
You should be looking inward now and ask yourself
...and a sprinkling of ‘you miss the points’:
you are missing the point completely
The point you are missing
But you are all still missing the point in your haste
Plus more than a few ‘strawmen’:
Two wrongs don't make a right
Do you agree with punishing innocent people?
It is purely and simply a very basic point of principle.
You are advocating indiscriminate punishment. I don't like the name John.
From next week unless you change your name I am removing staff travel. Fair?
Lynch mobs, arbitrary punishments, mobbing you name it, belongs elsewhere and not in the 21st century.
I were to ask whether you agree with indiscriminate punishment, or punishment of those suspected of being guilty but not yet found guilty or punishment of those who held a different view you would almost certainly disagree with it.
Obviously I don’t speak for the forum but I dare say ‘we’ do actually get the point you are making; it is fundamentally wrong to discriminate against a group of employees who have done nothing wrong except go on a strike. You have explained why you think BA have violated the above principle.
You also said this:
I am genuinely not trying to elevate any point above another
So please stop repeating it and feel free to move on to something new.
