new business plan to be adopted by heritage crews and such could be about whether THEY can be flexible enough to adopt new working practices - ie: fare rostering for All, and a permanent pay cut for heritage crews, so the new MF/CC crew are not on dire wages. After all, that seems only fare dont you think - A FARE WAGE FOR ALL AND A FARE WAY OF WORKING FOR ALL
747girl has an excellent point, there is lots of talk on here about how poor the T's and C's of MF will be and how they could join your trips but have less days off after (how nice).
Perhaps heratige crew could indeed ask BASSA to look into changes to their agreements and allowances to "even" out the disparity.
Just a thought.
Especially considering Labour ideals, Socialist worker, equality for all, anti fat cats and all that. Isn't that what UNITE stands for?
