IT isn't really relevant whether the CAA follow suit with regard to potential changes in European FTL legislation because the majority of airlines operating into or out of the UK aren't British; in other words we are not only competing with other UK airlines.
Balpa (which is not just BA) , and other pilot organisations are lobbying and petitioning to prevent changes.
These changes have already been implemented in other countries - like Switzerland.
I am extremely surprised you believe Bassa could ever protect you against future change given their demonstrated ineptitude over the last 2 years. And surely you cannot believe for 1 minute that they are preparing a defense of current FTLs to counter EASA proposals!
