As a non union pilot in BA I have already pointed out to our management that failure to pay non members would constitute discrimination under current legislation, and with the precedent already set, they would lose any further case.
Might have to get the lawyer to write to the company but I cannot see how they can avoid paying.
Either way I will not fund the life style of our BALPA reps....period!
Whilst not anti union per se, they are largely self serving cartels, that have never been able to protect the long term condition in any industry.
Yeah! But you are quite happy to line your own pockets through the financial efforts of others whilst you just sat on your arse with your union dues tucked away in that same pocket.
A little humility might be in order as well as noting that the "self serving cartel" has just secured a huge win for its members, and just maybe any other parasites who want to come along for the ride.
