you'd rather have your company council gamble with your jobs instead
I don't believe they are gambling with our jobs. If you think having agreed to the BACC method of "integration" would have prevented the announcement of flight ops job losses, you are quite naive (and you call bmi pilots that). And this "I told you so" attitude that certain posters have is patronising and offensive. I didn't see anyone suggesting these particular cuts were coming before the announcement.
I am confident the bmi CC will achieve the best deal possible for members. I hope in a few months (weeks!) I am a BA pilot and recognised as such, and I'm sure we'll have a much stronger/more prosperous future together as one workforce in one airline.
