Omnipresent,

Don't forget the Wonkers impression is that the terrible recession in Spain is purely a work of fiction by the scum Capitalist pigs which would never happen under the Socialist panacea lead by our Lord McClusky.

The fact that recessions, oil prices, labour prices and global world economics all play havoc with Airlines profits and losses is irrelevant in Wonker world as long as the Bruvva's can continue to receive the same remuneration as they did in the 1970's.

Ironically after the massive savings gifted BA by BASSA's intransigence the company, after streamlining and cost cutting, returned to profit. The BASSA hard core continue to believe that this was all a ploy by BA despite the confidential figures being shown to BALPA and the city. The institutional investors were briefed on the plan to rationalise by BA before it started as their tacit approval was required.

The whole thing worked, the company is in profit during the worst recession in living memory and the employees are benefiting.

Now Iberia has to go through the same rationalisation process. McClusky has stuff all interest in what goes on in Spain, all he wants is to show willing to get the votes he needs to continue in his cushy, cloud nine Union role.

I am 100% behind SELPA when it comes to sensible, strategic and coherent negotiation. Unfortunately, as happened in BA, a lot of give will be required if the airline is to be brought back on track.

As much as Wonker likes to spout about how despicable the IAG management are they have continued to turn a profit at BA and thus, to the investors, they have a track record of company reform.

What do BASSA have???? 10 tickets and the remains of the sex pest SWP.
