Pensions

LB.. Interesting. Good luck with it. I've filled it in. I dunno how to do it, but for lots of the Q.s I wanted to "investigate/gain the facts". maybe the Q.s need to be longer??

On Pensions...

I note that the irrelevancy that is bassa has been ignoring BA's BIGGEST problem - a 4 Billion pound hole in its pension schemes. That is 4 thousand million pounds.

if I worked at BA I would want to throttle anyone like bassa who were putting my pension at risk. If I were, say, an Engineer, I'd want the old contract Spanish practices CSDs who regard themselves as strike leaders to be fired pronto.

They've already moved to CPI increases, rather than RPI.

Not a peep out of bassa. Sleeping under the tomato plants? Maybe still recovering from Brighton going up and Southampton now looking unlikely to be promoted?
