OK Hunterboy, but the world isn't what we might wish it should be. I'd like world peace, nuclear fusion and an end to disease as well but I have to live with things as they actually are. Otherwise I'd start reading the Grauniad and wringing my hands and wailing.
the secondees should be paid mainline rates for the work and not the GSS scales
Then we would have two different payscales for the same job. Not the route to harmonious industrial relations methinks. Plus they would never leave and give someone else a go. And who could blame them.
Be far better if we were all on the BA rate but see wishful thinking above.
All we are doing is lowering the rate for the job
No argument there but that is the tone being set right across the industry. You would be better having a pop at the locos or pay to fly. That's where the rot started.
The dog says hi by the way.
