transfers.....
The CC forum has waxed indignant that BA is (apparently) showing preference to the cabin crew who are not backing militant action.
at first sight, this may appear to have some justification. however, if it is 'fair' that BASSA and Unite can apply pressure to the employer (Strikes, working to rule, hot towels, window blinds etc), surely the employer has some justification for putting employees in place where they have shown responsibility and support for the employer.
it is easy to dismiss this as putting toadies and yes-men forward. that is not in the interests of the long term future of the business and BA have shown they are grown-up enough to avoid that. it would be up to the critics to show that the preferred candidates are unqualified in some respect before that suggestion could stick.
can someone remind me when we are likely to hear the outcome of the ballot please?
