Hope the petition has the desired effects, but 'poor' Gordon is in such deep guano on so many fronts, that I doubt he has enough cash money available to afford this! I have signed it though!

What happened with that Birmingham small operator that was suddenly told (many years ago) that they had to pay back taxes on flight crew allowances, the rest of the nation still paying them tax free? I gather it threatened to destroy the company's finances.
It was all to do with the power of local tax inspectors.

Barrow Boy, you should add this to the Cabin Crew thread as well. They will sign up in droves, I hope!
I would suggest you change the heading.
Try something like; 'Sign petition to stop flight allowance tax increase'

Not to sound negative but come and join our club - at flybe we already get taxed on our mammoth £1.90 flight pay anyway!

What is the current status on ryanair sector pay, how would this change the taxation on it? I've heard both that it's taxfree right now, and that it's taxed before the money goes to the crew so I'm not sure what's true.
