Back to the good ol' days of the sweatshop and kids up chimneys hey ?
Recession is no excuse for workers democratic rights to be ignored, it is all very well commenting on here or elsewhere against taking action when the ones taking the swipes are not directly involved, ie; not working for the company involved.
No doubt the boss of BA will still be ok over the festive season.
There are two sides to every story.

There are ways to strike so that you make a point without losing the respect of those whose support you seek...
I so hope that BA stick to their guns this time..or there won't be any BA in the near future..Then see how BA cabin crew like working for the likes of Easyjet or Ryan Air...

Maggy, what are the ways to strike that you speak of that does not involve someone getting uppety about it?
We're all guilty of looking after number one in this country, and who is to blame for that?
