I personally think the answer is yes.

I have never had a criminal conviction for anything - why should i be working alongside people who have convictions?

It is about protecting customers and the vulnerable.

Just to let you guys know i am going to resign and inform the press if Virgin do not address this.

This forum has allowed me to air my views but if a company is not willing to look after its customers interests do i really want to work there anyway. I will go and work in utilities (gas and electric) at least there i will be able to hold my head up high and say to customers "I have been background checked" to give them confidence in who I really am!
From what i can gather he just don't wanna work with people that have made some mistakes!!

Live and let live i say!

And TBH you could resign and tell the press, the only person that would end up looking daft is yourself. VM would be respected because we now live in a day an age where acceptance is key.

Just because you have a criminal record shouldn't stop you moving on and getting on with your life....
