Your right.

Though the real problem now is that very few cabin crew trust BA and particularly the strikers believe, that he wants to force them, in the future, onto Mixed Fleet terms and conditions.

I don't actually believe that this is in the plan but even I, that have been trusting of BA, get a bit jittery from time to time and worry about how I will afford my home if things change dramatically in the future.

Couple that with their feelings of being hard done by, by the removal of staff travel and I know that this was within BA's right to do, but it is this that feeds this strike action. Fear and mistrust I am afraid and those of us that are more moderate and have a more balanced view can't even chat about it to people because it is just not possible to have a conversation about anything like this at work, for fear of someone getting upset and therefore not being able to have a good working relationship with them.
