So you freely admit that if bmi pilots don't do it your way they will be prejudiced in any merger scenario?
First, it is not "our" way (I presume you mean the BACC), it is IAG's way.
Second, the future of BMI pilots will not be prejudiced in any way. The
least the BMI pilots will get is TUPE which
legally guarantees they will not be disadvantaged in any way. Incidentally, this is the same TUPE which legally guarantees that existing BA pilots will not be disadvantaged either, which will no doubt be why the BACC chairman continues to refer to the phrase.
However, if the "least" is all that BMI pilots wish to see (current BMI T&Cs on a ringfenced fleet), please don't engage with the BACC. If you want more than that, start talking.
...and be exposed to BA's cost-cutting zeal.
Believe me, having been through many years of this, they're very good at it.
