The proposed action of a days protest is to hit home in a manner which BA will be unable to ignore that they have a group of workers who are at their wits end with being abused and ignored.

No, many of you wont have heard anything yet but if there is not an announcement within the next few days then, this protest will become a reality and everyone will have an opportunity of demonstrating just what they think of Messrs Evans' and Hearn's grasp on the business of CitiExpress.

The point is that the one thing BA management understand is the importance of presenting the illusion to the City that here is a well run company with a motivated and productive workforce. If a group of its workers revolt then that illusion is shown for the lie that it is.

The intention is to draw the interest of the media to what is an utter shambles and thereby force the City and institutions which support BA to ask some rather profound questions as to why they are supporting a company which time and time again demonstrates that it neither has the management nor the strategy to deal with running an airline business.

If there does not follow the most thorough and far reaching culling of the individuals responsible for this mess then the business is doomed in any event.

Thats all!
