Miss M,
No offence, but I'm not the type to frequent BFC even if it was the last place on earth!
As far as BASSA is concerned, it is a reckless union which has lost credibility in every sense. It's tarnished the name of cabin crew and I wouldn't want to be associated with it in any way. I'm also content with the benefits that BA have granted me.
I'm very happy with the PCCC which has a respectable and very adult forum where momentum is growing rapidly. If I need support, I will consult the PCCC.
