Todays comedy claptrap

Fresh from the BASSA forum, apparently BALPA show their lack of backbone again:

Yet again, they think they are above everybody (scroll down) - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... l?ITO=1490
It appears the BASSAmentalists have such a short attention span that they can't scroll down the page and read the first paragraph of the inset titled "Solo delegate opposes strike".

Good work Jim McAuslan I say, and well done for not rubber stamping some ridiculous agitprop motion to coordinate strikes against economic reality.

Meanwhile, Crew Defence, the scheme set up strikers to fund a court case against BA over the removal of staff travel has run into trouble. "10000 crew, £100 each" was the appeal on the BASSA forum. Well it seems the faithful aren't willing to put their £££ where their mouths, and as a result Crew Defence have been forced to abandon their plans to take BA to court on cost grounds and instead will be attempting to take BA to an Employment Tribunal. United we stand?
