Death threats, if true, are way, way over the top and damaging to the cause.
The overwhelming numbers of QF employees would condemn these threats. Don't tar all Qantas employees and union members with the same brush.
I believe this as well, there is only one way to win this battle, stay cool. The managers will play this tune all the way up to the AGM. I hope the AFP and or the NSW police get to the source of the alleged "threat letter," it's stupid

The other point that should be made is that the actions of the Exec so far go way beyond looking like a threat, they were a threat and delivered in a way over many years that has largely been responsible for the situation that now exists between the Rat and its employees.
I have to agree with this, and I am a huge critic of the current management, not just AJ, LC & OW. None of this would be happening if they sat down at the negotiation table with all the relevant unions. The whole thing has been badly handled from the beginning, sad it has come to this.
