True but if the flock wasn't willing to follow, then the BASSA leadership would be unable to dictate the agenda. And many were still following right up until the point when realisation started to dawn that the benefits for the leadership were becoming more important than the benefits for the membership. From what I can see, that has always been the case but thanks to those agreements generally being beneficial to all at the main base, it's only now that it has become so obvious too so many more.
(This is not a LHR v All Others argument. It's a fact that we will always look at an agreement and ask what's in it for us, no matter what base we come from. Most of us work to pay the bills. Enjoying the job is a bonus.)
