old crew get a payrise and allowance protections.
Which is there in black and white. Therefore, BA would not renege on this deal, if so there would rightly be an uproar and, quite correctly, you
would probably have backing from what would be perceived as unjust.
But at the moment, BASSA is the same ole BASSA. Hence,near to zero support outside the CC fraternity for the continual calls for IA as they continue spitting out their dummies. The lack of negotiation and political left wing agenda within a branch that wont even allow YOU to vote on an offer, defies belief!
And, very scary, if there are many others like 'crewfriend'!
Many of us, as stated time and time again, have, over the past few years, adapted to change on a mammoth scale.
The world has changed, and, sadly, not for the good!
The sad reality is, that many will continue to lose jobs, and house repossesion in 2011 is expected to be a further 40,000 according to the CML.
And BASSA in its own little world continue with its own agenda. This despite retaining your job with written guarantees re T &C's!
This is certainly not about union busting. This is about a CEO finally saying to BASSA 'no more', fully supported by many staff, hence the VCC's.
A change of leadership within BASSA is the only solution to long term harmony, IMHO.
