Harrison and MaxPete
With respect, gents, that is why I shell out my 1% to BALPA
They should (and are doing I am assured [hope!

] ) be getting the best legal advice for their members.
Not a member? Then join, or be left in the dark.
My take at the moment is to print a disclaimer on th back of the bid form, pointing out that it has been filled in under pressure of time, without the information required to do it, and that any bid is neither fully voluntary, nor binding.
