FR have 4 billion Euro worth of wiggle room. That is the money that buys countries, Ireland is in trouble financially and that kind of money can grease the path of many a politician.
I heard all this many years ago and many years before that too, and now it is "When the government do this…." Guys the only people who can do anything about this is YOU. The problem is you are scattered to the four winds. The posting that says you need one contract negotiated is correct and that contract need to be negotiated by a group with your backing (a strong pilot group voted for by you) Divide and conquer has worked for FR for many many years and it will continue to do so unless you get together.
Everyone worldwide in every airline knows about FR, you have a choice either sort it out and make your airline somewhere worth working and being proud of or leave it to be the sweat shop factory where people just work until they have the experience to go elsewhere. Remember though that this management style is pervasive and other companies are slowly latching on to it and as such if it is not stopped you might just find you have nowhere else to go.
