vctenderness, on the subject of the star of David being worn by a sacked crew member I suggest you google'The Jewish Chronicle BA Steward Sacked'
Sorry, I am not a pilot, can't fly planes and I can't do 'clickys' either.
Read the article and understand more about the sacked and suspended.
The Blu Riband is right, I have only lost one thing that was imposed to my T&Cs, no thanks to his efforts. I believe one thing our strike did achieve is ensuring the rest of our T&Cs remain untouched.
It's my personal belief if we had not stood up and backed our right to have collective representation then the rest of our T&Cs would have been drip drip drip, irrigated away until all we had left was our contractual basic pay, Mixed Fleet without even the hat to feel elite!
We do have a Union but I don't wish to rush for another strike. It really is the nuclear option when all else has failed. This could be settled but provocative suspensions and those that I believe troll our forums deliberately looking for things to report as bullying and harrassment have got to stop.
I did write vicious and stupid things - I said I know how to push buttons! I believe they have screen shots of everything I wrote, desperately trying to find a reason to report me to the police or management to identify me and have me sacked.
I believe being vocal makes me a target but I refuse to be bullied into silence, just as I refuse to be bullied from taking part in a legally balloted for strike.
I will not sign any deal that takes away my legal right to fight injustice and I don't believe many of my colleagues would either.
