Thank you for your comments. Actually, there is no secret society. We are in fact "out there" voicing opinion and strategy. It may seem strange to the outside world, but ours is such a large community that names are, by and large, meaningless.

The majority of crew don't know who the long-serving BASSA/Amicus reps are. The majority of crew don't know who their manager is. Many crew don't even know who the Head of IFCE is. And 99% of the time, crew don't know the CSD, or any of the other crew that they are flying with. It is a sea of anonymity. Everyday working with different people that we don't know. It's how we work.

The PCCC could put our names out there tomorrow. Crew wouldn't know who we are, nor would they probably care. It wouldn't make a jot of difference.

It would be extremely helpful though if you could post details of your mass move from one TU to another and your involvement in it. Would you be willing to do that - or maybe you could pm me?

The point is we don't disagree - we have the same passion and beliefs. So, please put that passion to good use and come and join us? Come and sit at the "top table" as you call it. You are obviously as passionate about this as us, and if the LGW membership want to "go it alone" (a breakaway union within a breakaway union ) then we will support that.

All we are is crew striving to rid ourselves of this monster that has grown out of control in our midst. We must all stand together to do it. I admit, the PCCC may not be getting it completely right.

But at least we're not doing nothing.
