First off, I do agree with everything you have said about the British Airways strike. I do feel however, that it's unfair of you to belittle my career. How dare you accuse us all of being stupid with no qualifications. I have 19 of them to my name all of them A-B grade. Did you know that we go through 6 weeks of very intensive training. We have many responsibilities. We know exactly what to do if a fire breaks out on board, if both pilots became imcompacitated or a medical emercency. Would you?
hey Dumb *uck iam Virgin Atlantic cabin crew and i earn more than BA cabin crew. get your facts straight. and GOD I feel sorry for your mother having to go through all the pain of birth to get this result .And just for the record I am also able to save your sorry white ass if you should need any medical aid on board. why i would want to is a second thought.
Completley agree with the strike concerns. However you quite clearly have no idea what Cabins Crews responsibilities are. Do some research. I am qualified Cabin Crew...its hard as fuck. If you think we just open a packet of dried roasted peanuts, then your an idiot. The part where you said, no responsibility and no skills, is when I gave up with this unrealistic, nasty and uneducated rant.

half of wat u say is gr8!!! but dont ever say we as cabin crew dont wk our arses off we dont just open peanuts we are aswell as the flight deck trained! if the aircraft crashes who do u think will save u if someone has a heart attack who do u think will help and come to the rescue yes we get paid alot but we get paid for our knowledge in case of such events. yes i am cabin crew but i dont wk for ba and i dont agree with ba's strike but i also dont agree with pple not respecting us
Hey powerful peanuts I'm a male BA Cabin Crew member and a tear came to my eye when you mentioned us with our perfect hair as I have lost all mine ha ha (although I have been told I got a face people wanna hit!)
I did strike but take your point! If I recognise you on a BA plane though don't expect any ice, I sometimes forget! Peace :-)
You dont know anything... I am not Cabin Crew but I know that they are nothing like the way you or other people portray them as. They have offered deals with Willie Walsh and he has had none of it. He wants to take away any rights they have! And there pay, my friend gets 12 grand a year... its not exactly alot, only people working 30 years have a higher salary and why not they have worked hard to get where they are.
vile and abusive speech , teddy bear with long hair, get a life and get some facts . Speaking yhe way you are doing, you must have earned some kind of diploma in a xmas crackers box !What r you doing for a living ? How much do you earn ?get a life and don't be agressive, you are a little man with some ego never achieved .
Right on man you said it all,these fuckers should be happy they have a job! there are soldiers out there risking there live for less than half of what you whinging wimpish twats get so SHUT THE FUCK UP & TAKE THOSE MONEY GRABBING UNION BOSSES WITH YOU! ask yourself this? while your on strike what are those union bosses earning a year? Lining there own pockets with a massive salary no doubt! wake up nobody gives a fuck about you!!!!!!!!
@RuthlessInterloper Honey if the cabin crew don't open the doors and set the escape slides off who gives a fuck how the plane made it to ground. By the way I am not a flight attendant and I live on the other side of the world, so I have no idea what oe where Bedford is. Finally, I don't really have an opinion about myself, but I now have one of you...................you're a dumbfuck retard.
@scothaul1 When BA goes bust you will earn 0k, ya limp wristed greedy bastard, british soldiers getting shot at on a daily basis earning 16k and you fuckers complain, twat
@CarryOnDrJosef a). NOT cabin crew, though I have joined the Mile High Club- three times in fact! b). "Naughty school boys stripping"???- well that is YOUR fantasy, not mine. In a U.S. High School where 2 seniors did a strip at the school assembly the Principal was fired. Clearly the joke was lost on the local school board and, also, you, cretin. c). Glee is a step up from your daily viewing of The Jerry Springer Show. d). Yeah Australian's do have talent. Your point? e). Gay yes, Fag, No.
BA management have an awful lot to answer for. Incurring a £121 Million fine for price fixing, purchasing hugh fuel reserves at peak prices and overseeing the disastrous opening of Terminal 5. They have just announced record losses of £531 million on top of a loss of £401 million for the previous year. This is the third consecutive year that BA have announced record losses.
this guy is a chief executive lackie, fekin scab , on a serious level its numpties like this the reason why the human race is easy to dominate, hot air and no balls
I hope next time you fly, You crash, then you will know what we are there for. I am against flying. But heres the thing Beardo, When we are hijacked, when we have decompression, when we crash into the sea, who do you think deals with it and looks afetr every1? We fight fires, we learn hand to hand combat to stop terrorists. While you shit yourself. Get a hair cut, get a shave, get a job, join us as cabinc rew,then come and moan. Dick
They don't just open bags of peanuts. they serve peanuts. like you. oh and if the plane's "going down" you might wish you had a little more respect for the safety professionals sitting at the exit doors whose extensive training and experience may save your pathetic little life. you peanut.
Dont get me wrong, I was on that picket line singing to my little hearts content!! Lol! Still love it though - though you're wrong about the peanuts of course........Willy Walsh took snacks away from economy passengers a long time ago!! Its just the ice & mini coke now!! X
Hee hee hee! I am B.A cabin crew, I DO have a fabulous ass and I LOVE this!! I'm posting a link to my facebook wall right now! Funniest thing I have seen in a while, thanks!! <3
@Summer414 glad to see not all BA cabin crew hate us...good to see someone taking it in good spirit.....let us know the facebook link and we might mention it on the site
With a bit of luck you'll only take a stroke, there's not much I'll be able to do about that other than put you on oxygen and reassure your family that I've arranged an ambulance to meet the aircraft and pass on all the medical notes on your vital statistics I've made while you were unconcious.
Sorry sir, was that two ice cubes or three? Hopefully I don't find it necessary to piss in your drink.
I'm not sure if my fifteen years' experience serving peanuts will qulify me to evacuate all 500 people onboard in 90 seconds, or whether I should leave that to the two pilots who are, by now, saving their own asses.
Hopefully I'll be able to muster the ability to arm my door, so that when we crash the slide inflates and you can slide your scrawny ass down it rather than burn in the cabin.
I'm looking forward to the day that I'm working as a 'Glorified Waitress' on a flight that you're on. Fingers crossed you don't get ill incase I forget how to perform CPR or use the defibrilator. Here's hoping there's not a rapid decompression, heaven forbid you should become hypoxic and pass out, I might forget to put your oxygen mask on for you.
British Airways is no longer the flag carrier. It does not receive any government subsidy nor does it enjoy a monopoly. It cannot compete with the cheaper budget airlines, who exploit the fact that youngsters wish to join for the fun factor. Airlines such as Ryanair deny their employees trade union representation; and subsequently pay their cabin crew a pitance. Competition drives down wages and eventually comes to industrial unrest. We have seen it with the postal workers.
It is that American management consulting firm (London SW1) that is causing great hardship to the customers of BA. They are fuelling the whole dispute with their union-busting agenda. They are forcing the issue on the cabin crew. The passengers are suffering the inconvenience of this dispute because of the divide and rule policy of Walsh.
@RuthlessInterloper Ah- wrong again my dear friend. I have a loving family. Kids that look up to me and are proud that their dad stood up for the working class and stood up against Bully Management. I couldn't bare the thought of having kids growing up knowing that I was a SCAB - sad that some kids will find this out about their parents one day. Shame. Let's meet up. Just hope I don't spill beer on your Sketchers.
The relationship between cabin crew and pilots has been tested. Those treacherous pilots (albeit just a few) who have undermined the action of their colleagues have done more harm than good to the company. The relationship between the flight deck and cabin crew is paramount and this approach has dangerously undermined that relationship. An indefinite strike is inevitable.
@skcodyerrus That logic is exactly what a minority of cabin crew use to justify a rude,ignorant and off-hand attitude. To be honest they have probably always behaviour like that. Even the smallest thing and they will take it as a personal slight and retreat back into their galley and be reluctant to communicate with their pilots as a result. This strike will be used as an excuse to be ignorant, luckily only by a minority.
@Bassalies A union which regularly engages in pilot-bashing, encourages its members to do the same, regards pilots with such disdain. IS it any wonder that the pilots union will not support us.
British Airways cabin crew will be at loggerheads with the company for years to come. The immense damage that Walsh has done to the airline over the past couple of years is a drop in the ocean compared to the damage done in the past fortnight. The use of 1,000 Scabs from its own 38,000-strong workforce has caused irrepairable damage. The likes of Bassalies spreading management propaganda is helping in the demise of British Airways as we know it.
@skcodyerrus With over 70% of crew turning up for work, do you consider that Unite/BASSA are currently representing the views of the majority of BA Cabin Crew?
We have spoken with our Brothers and Sisters from both the Unite union and BASSA and they are heartened by the support that they are receiving from the rest of the trade union movement. They are digging in for a much lengthier stoppage than the current three and four day stoppages. Walsh is under immense pressure from the city. He is desparately pleading for more people to turn their backs on their colleagues and cross picket lines.
@skcodyerrus I doubt BA would notice - almost 100% of crew turned up at LGW, and 75% at LHR. Unite has become increasingly sidelined. They make a lot of noise but are increasingly ignored by BA as new crew are recruited and the miltant striking crew become irrelevant. BA have proved so far that they can crew a significant part of their operation without the militants. Appreciably, it's not ideal but the longer it goes on, the more replacement crew can be recruited
@skcodyerrusWhy are you talking of fighting to the bitter end. I for one am really not sure what they are now fighting for......do they really think WW is going to significantly cave when (strike positioned as "mother of all battles") he can operate such a substantive schedule and unite a huge proportion of his workforce.........
@skcodyerrus The average no-show rate due to crew striking at LGW was approx 3 or 4 crew across each strike weekend and apparently the average crew sickness rate on a normal weekend at LGW is about 10 crew, so in real terms crew attendance levels improved across the strike weekends.
Yesterday a resolution was unanimously passed that our branch donate £2,000 to the Unite and BASSA fighting funds in support of the British Airways Cabin Crew. With other branches all over Britain putting forward similar motions, I fully expect a substantial sum of money to reach our brothers and sisters within the next week or so.
@Bassalies (aka management lies). I fully expect this sum to reach well over a million pounds by the early part of next week. With wee Willy embarking on pathetic advertising campaigns in the national press, it is obvious to see that BA are on the back foot. You only have to take a look at the weasel`s face to see that he seems to have aged over the past week.
@skcodyerrus So your saying that Ushite is NOT going to raise £700000 to support striking British Airways cabin crew with an "unprecedented" levy on members. Its management lies????
ANYBODY INTERESTED PLEASE GOOGLE - unprecedented levy - and see exactly who is telling lies!
Also I've yet to hear a valid reasoned proposal (argument) why they feel the need to strike - please enlighten us and stop ignoring the question.
@Bassalies (aka management lies) Please would you elaborate on the details of the three year pay offer that you say was on the table? Was the current RPI figure taken into account? What did management want in return for this? A three year pay deal would never have been acceptable given the uncertainties of the world economy. How much was the proposed bonus payment? I suspect that there was no such offer as you`re just the company lackey peddling Walsh`s lies.
@skcodyerrus I'm glad Ushite have a million pounds to waste considering the debts the union has. At least I take comfort in the fact they will go down the pan after the next general election.
this clown needs to get off the dole and get a real job, spouting shite!! power to the bedford strikers, they are fighting for their future, this clown does't have one.
Yes we are- almost as nasty as SCABS puting families and kids onto the streets.
Looks like you've raised your ugly head again RuthlessInterloper.
Start to enjoy your nights down route by yourself. All crew hate NIGELS- glorified bus drivers. No Cabin Crew want anything to do with you anymore. Enjoy your nights in your chinos, polo tops whilst eating your chicken wings. SCABS - WE HAVE YOUR NAMES
When BA announced record losses of £401 million in July of last year, Walsh announced that he would work for free in July. He has declined his bonus for the past three years however, last year £90,000 was paid into his pension pot and similar amounts were deposited in the previous two. He has since accepted a 6% pay rise, taking his salary to £735,000. The BA cabin crews` basic pensionable pay is £13,000 and not £30,000 as stated in this un-researched claptrap.
@skcodyerrus You have quoted the STARTING pay for new contract cabin crew - crew are on an incremental scale with yearly increases in pay - so the reality is crew have also have a pay increase this year, this is part of their contract as is Willies pay rise. Whereas the rest of the airline is on a performance related pay and haven't received an increase in over two years. You also 'forgot' to include the generous allowances the crew receive which can add over £1000 per month to the crew pay.
@Bassalies BA are a militant management who want to impose changes to The cabin crews` contracts rather than negotiate. Staffing levels have been cut by 25% on short haul flights. Not only has this compromised safety, it has deminished the service offered to customers by British Airways. The cabin crew have agreed to take a two year payfreeze but refuse to let Walsh compromise safety.
@skcodyerrus You agreed to take the same pay freeze the rest of BA have already taken on top of Job Cuts, Pay Cuts and Performanace Improvements - You still have a long way to go to catch up with the rest of airline. Stop feeling hard done by and grow up. The reduction in Crew on the aircraft has been proved to have no effect of safety - but Militant Crew sulking has a BIG effect!
@Bassalies (aka management lies). I have not agreed to take a pay freeze. I do not feel hard done by because I enjoy an excellent rate of pay, very good terms and conditions and I am a member of a well financed final salary pension scheme. I am not a member of Unite or BASSA.
@skcodyerrus The CAA set minimum staffing requirements on UK airlines and even with the reductions BA proposed they are still above the statutory minimum requirements...presumably BASSA are saying they are more qualified than the UK regulatory body then to decide safety standards ?
@bayleafdog The cabin crews` main concern are the passengers. The management`s main concern is the customer. The cabin crew worries about safety; the management worries about profit. Whose word shall I take? That of the organization that represents the cabin crew? Or that of management sympathizer such as yourself?
@skcodyerrus actually I have more concern for two siblings who work at BA and who after making sacrifices in their own departments along with their colleagues don't see why CC are a breed apart
@bayleafdog That`s the diference between principled trade unionists who stand should to shoulder to defend their rights and individuals like you, who stand alone with their 'what`s in it for me philosohy'.
@skcodyerrus yep me and all the other people who work for the same company as me (and are Unite members) and no doubt many thousands who work for other US/European airlines teetering on the brink...they all want to keep their jobs in companies that to say the least are suffering financially..in an earlier post you said you were very sound financially with a gold plated pension....well it's very easy to be self righteous and "principled" in that position isn't it
@bayleafdog I`m afraid that someone like you, with your principles, would never be able to controvert mine. My rate of pay and my terms and conditions have been fought for. I do not work in the airline industry nor am I a member of either BASSA or Unite. If I had your selfish philosophy, then It would enable me to slag off the BA cabin crew. However, trade unionists stand together, you stand alone.
@skcodyerrus but that is an assumption on your part about me...and despite the fine theory and the spin that Unite are putting on it Unite members within other parts of BA do not support the cabin crew action...it's not just a case of theoretically better off pilot members of BALPA
@skcodyerrus be it for the worse or whatever it s a very different world to that of the more powerful unions of the 60s and 70s...people have become more prosperous in the UK and so have become more selfish because they have more to lose...whilst they might agree in priciple with something they know that principle won't pay their mortgage,put food on the table or keep the bayliff from the door so along with the increased expectations goes the increased looking after themselves
@skcodyerrus I think Bassa have been extremely complacent in this..because BA have always stepped back at the threat of industrial action in the past they assumed that it would be no different this time....unfortuately for them Walsh called their bluff
@skcodyerrus personally apart from my brother and sister I don't really care about BA apart from the the cabin crew action meaning that my own company gets some of their customers and so helps safeguard my own job....as to your safety comments I ask you again are you saying Bassa are more qualified than the regulatory body in these matters?
@bayleafdog Competition gluts our markets and in order for BA to survive, it needs to make cuts. Unfortunately it`s the cabin crew who has been made to pay. You automatically blame the cabin crew for no other reason than: you`re anti-union. Capitalism chasing profit is to blame for the demise of British Airways. So you see, you are more to blame than both the cabin crew and trade unions put together.
@skcodyerrus you know nothing about me and say I am anti union...no I am flabbergasted at the stupidity of Bassa who have probably written a master class for future union rep training on how to not negotiate something......you say the cabin crew have been made to pay...what about other departments in BA then who have already agreed to pay freezes/staff cuts etc..is what they've given up simply there to make sure the cabin crew don't have to ?
@skcodyerrus and do give this management sympathizer cack a miss....so it's basically a case that anyone who has a different view to you is a traitor/lackey/insert favored derogatory term...well I'm sure another dispute will be along shortly which also requires the sage views of a keyboard class warrior
Competition gluts our markets. In order for BA to compete with the cheaper budget airlines, it needs to cut costs. Unfortunately it`s the cabin crew who has been made to pick up the bill. Why should they tamely submit to an attack on their standard of living and terms and conditions; simply because of the rotton system that rewards only the likes of Walsh?
well yes they are picking up the bill.....apart from the large amount of other staff in BA who have already agreed to wage freezes and no rises,voluntary redundancies and taking on more workload etc..last year..and who are just a tad pissed off with the cabin crew thinking they are exempt from all this...try doing a bit more reading up on things winkle
@skcodyerrus The rest of the airline has had a continual evolution of terms and conditions over the last 5-10 years including job cuts, pay cuts and improvements in working practices.
Contrast that with cabin crew who have sulked and had a hissy fit - the standard answer from Bassa has been 'NO, now whats the question?' Instead of making a number of smaller manageable changes, crew are making all the required improvements in one hit. This is largely thanks to Bassa.
@Bassalies Propaganda from the management lackey. The cabin crews` contracts are being wilfully breached by BA. Let`s contrast that with Walsh`s terms and conditions.
skcodyerrus @Bassalies After god had finished the rattlesnake, the toad and the vampire, he had an awful substance left with which he made a Scab. A Scab is a two-legged animal with a cork-screw soul, a water-logged brain and a combination backbone made of jelly and glue. Where others have hearts he carries a tumour full of rotton principles. A strikebreaker is a traitor to his god, his country, his family and his class.
I am pleased to say I have withdrawn my Union membership, and now go to work (as it is illegal for me to withdraw my labour). Going to work is great at the moment (altough I hope this is sorted soon) as everyone that turns up has a great attitude. CRC is a buzzing place on strike days. To the strikers that have posted, you do yourself no favours, you had an opportunity to put your point of view accross to counter the plonker, but instead proove that you are not worthy of working for BA.
@skcodyerrus You really need to get a life - if all you can do is surf on-line and comment on Industrial issues that do not concern you. You are a vile little person.
It may be buzzing at the moment but when we return to work you will be left down route by yourself sulking why no one talks to you. You will die a SCAB. You will take that title to the GRAVE. Everyday it will eat away at you. You deserve it. Oh - by the way- GOOD RIDDANCE.
Don't worry about what happens downroute, 8 weeks from now you WILL be sacked quite legally. Time for a trip to the job centre for you or to WAKE UP to reality & trot back to work with your tail between your legs!!!
@2010strike clearly English is not your first language. Let me spell this out to you.....I am not in a Union, I therefore cannot legally withdraw my labour. What you don't realise is that there are more crew who have backed BA than haven't, so I have no issues with being down route......do you? As for working class people, don't make me laugh....we are anything but.
@leftunionnowflying When did you leave the union then Scab? Was it after you knew that the strike was inevitable? The nons are the worst sort. When this strike is over and your colleagues have fought off the unjustified attacks from Walsh and that well known group of management consultants (who are fuelling this whole dispute ) you will be the one who will benefit from there endeavours. You`re nothing but a ponse who lives off of the back of others!
@skcodyerrus I left the union in November when I realised they were not looking after the members, this is a power struggle. The reasonable changes that have been imposed are what.....reduced crew numbers on some WW, and a change in the disruption agreement.....in fact now I put it like that why am I not on strike!! Why were these imposed....intransigence and ineptitude of our union, a union that refuses to negotiate.
@skcodyerrus You really are a fool - You've not put forward one single compelling argument for this strike.Only sprouted insulting comments about strike-breakers and any other staff backing BA.
you're very right. no one seems to have a compelling argument for the strike here. all i see is one creepy guy talking about god creating scabs (?!) and angry, mean little people thinking they are victims and the only ones on earth who work hard / have jobs. how embarrassing for BA that these are the unbalanced / abusive people they hired.
He`s using this medium to take the piss out of working class people who are fighting to protect their standards of living. I can imagine this pillock having a good old laugh with his middle class student friends.
@Bassalies The Sun newspaper today reported that 227 flights were cancelled at Heathrow airport yesterday. Anything I read in any of Murdoch`s rags I usually take with a pinch of salt. However as News International is fiercely anti trade unions, I suspect that this number maybe even higher.
Jesus Christ you are one hell of an ugly woman, mmm bit of inbreeding going on here. When you back in! mental illness is not very nice is it. I know you from the local, dope head doley says it all really.
Ermmm lol yep...people will really listen to this P... who doesnt even speak English properly....Your points are vulgar and very basic. I am sure that you have no understanding of the issues you seem to RANT ( Good word to discribe your idiotic posts on here ) about, and obviously no nothing about industrial relations. PLEASE do the public a huge favour and go get a job....and a haircut and some decent clothes wouldnt go a miss either. .....please next time ...speak English
@BullyWalsh The Pilots offered and took a PERMANENT pay cut of 2.61% AND a 20% reduction in their flying pay as well as other changes to working practices. What have Cabin Crew done - refused to accept the company is in trouble, will only accept temporary cuts with full paybacks and cost the company millions in an unnecessary strike! We were offered the same share deal as the pilots THREE tmes but was rejected without consultation of the membership. Well Done Bassa!
@Bassalies So are you a management lackey using this medium to spread your vile propaganda and lies? Are you a Scab? Are you working for that well known firm of management consultants who are fuelling this whole dispute?
@Bassalies Please would you elaborate on the details of the three year pay offer? Was the current RPI figure brought into the equation? What did management want in return for this? A three year pay deal would never of been acceptable given the uncertainties of the world economy. What was the value of the proposed bonus payment?
You are so ill informed its laughable,, stop reading the daily mail, stop masquerading as if representing the public, go get a haircut and areal job, start paying tax like the rest of us and then you may be entitled to a voice. ignorant prck
BA cabin crew are blinkered to the recent upheavals, but we are in crisis: several airlines such as EOS, Maxjet, Silverjet, XL Airways and FlyGlobespan, JAL have gone bust, others like bmi and Aer Lingus are cutting back, BA is losing £1.6m a day. BA has a new fleet at lower cost and might further reduce costs in future. Of course, nobody likes this, but the bottom line is this.
BA cabin crew have got jobs right now and must play their part in saving the company
BA cabin crew are living in a dream world.... they're causing a lot of crap for ordinary families for very little reason.... 'bully management' - pathetic.
When the Iberia merger happens and BA staff start to loose there job - we all know the strikers will be the first to get shown the door - and when they are, they'll get absolutely no sympathy from the rest of us.
@maxfm83 cheers pal...we just giving our view at PP and think it's normal hard working customers who being taken advantage of...the cabin crew are living in the 60s, thinking it's even ok to strike like this...
@powerfulpeanuts What the fuck do you know about the 60s? What do you know about 70s, 80s,or 90s for that matter? I bet when you have flown in the past, the fare was afforded by your parents. Go and get an haircut you scruffy git.
What do you know about BA crew... not everybody makes 30K a year, there are thousands of them on less than 15K-20k a year ! Get informed b4 opening your spitty fucking mouth.
What do you about JetLag?
Being away from home for days when someone is sicka t home!
Missing friends and family birthdays abd celebrations for being away......Xmas, Easter and even when your parents pass away !
So what exactly have you contributed to society? Fuck all no doubt. I bet you've never held down a job for more than a week and that you were on minimum wage. I bet you've never paid a penny in tax yet you think you have the right to slag off hard working people. At least we know what you look like. We will be doing you a favour when we rearrange your face.
m8 - im loving dis. u keep provin his point. besides - wat u know about this guy? he doing what he days - all you can do is diss? why not use this as a forum to make a point to doubters. you keep feeding the bad image.
what are YOU contributing to society "2010 strike"? apparently - violence and threats. stop being such an insecure HATER. find a better way to make your point. so if ppl disagree with you you smash their face? you represent everything wrong with the world. and for the record - i would have been interested in trying to actually understanding the strike - instead of hearing your garbage. waste.
lol. i love how the response of the angry pro-strikers attacks your looks. yeah - you sound SO MUCH more educated - really thoughtful rhetoric. lol. -- you prove his point to a t - using thoughtless bullying to prove your point (or lack thereof) - at least you have qualifications to join abusive unions. rock on.
Your day will come to you silly piece of shit and who will stand up for you? This long haired unemployed yeti - screaming on youtube thinking he's a big man? You hide behind your text. You will always be scum.
Monday Morning Rant? Monday Morning Tramp...more like! I suggest you cut your caveman hair and beard and apply for Cabin Crew position since the job is not difficult,unskilled and paid well.I'm glad I'm watching this through a computer screen cause you spit quite a lot besides talking a load of shite and repeating yourself. Monday Evening Reality Check Special: You haven't got the faintest clue what the dispute is really about so shut your ugly gob and spare us your peanuts bullshit.

BA management have an awful lot to answer for. Incurring a £121 Million fine for price fixing, purchasing hugh fuel reserves at peak prices and overseeing the disastrous opening of Terminal 5. They have just announced record losses of £531 million on top of a loss of £401 million for the previous year. This is the third consecutive year that BA have announced record losses.

British Airways will not survive as we know it. The only way it can survive is through re-nationalization.
skcodyerrus 1 year ago
British Airways is no longer the flag carrier. It does not receive any government subsidy nor does it enjoy a monopoly. It cannot compete with the cheaper budget airlines, who exploit the fact that youngsters wish to join for the fun factor. Airlines such as Ryanair deny their employees trade union representation; and subsequently pay their cabin crew a pitance. Competition drives down wages and eventually comes to industrial unrest. We have seen it with the postal workers.

It is that American management consulting firm (London SW1) that is causing great hardship to the customers of BA. They are fuelling the whole dispute with their union-busting agenda.

2010strike 1 year ago
The relationship between cabin crew and pilots has been tested. Those treacherous pilots (albeit just a few) who have undermined the action of their colleagues have done more harm than good to the company. The relationship between the flight deck and cabin crew is paramount and this approach has dangerously undermined that relationship. An indefinite strike is inevitable.
skcodyerrus 1 year ago
@skcodyerrus That logic is exactly what a minority of cabin crew use to justify a rude,ignorant and off-hand attitude. To be honest they have probably always behaviour like that. Even the smallest thing and they will take it as a personal slight and retreat back into their galley and be reluctant to communicate with their pilots as a result. This strike will be used as an excuse to be ignorant, luckily only by a minority.

British Airways cabin crew will be at loggerheads with the company for years to come. The immense damage that Walsh has done to the airline over the past couple of years is a drop in the ocean compared to the damage done in the past fortnight. The use of 1,000 Scabs from its own 38,000-strong workforce has caused irrepairable damage. The likes of Bassalies spreading management propaganda is helping in the demise of British Airways as we know it.

@skcodyerrus With over 70% of crew turning up for work, do you consider that Unite/BASSA are currently representing the views of the majority of BA Cabin Crew?

We have spoken with our Brothers and Sisters from both the Unite union and BASSA and they are heartened by the support that they are receiving from the rest of the trade union movement. They are digging in for a much lengthier stoppage than the current three and four day stoppages. Walsh is under immense pressure from the city. He is desparately pleading for more people to turn their backs on their colleagues and cross picket lines.
skcodyerrus 1 year ago
@skcodyerrus I doubt BA would notice - almost 100% of crew turned up at LGW, and 75% at LHR. Unite has become increasingly sidelined. They make a lot of noise but are increasingly ignored by BA as new crew are recruited and the miltant striking crew become irrelevant. BA have proved so far that they can crew a significant part of their operation without the militants. Appreciably, it's not ideal but the longer it goes on, the more replacement crew can be recruited
Bassalies 1 year ago
@skcodyerrusWhy are you talking of fighting to the bitter end. I for one am really not sure what they are now fighting for......do they really think WW is going to significantly cave when (strike positioned as "mother of all battles") he can operate such a substantive schedule and unite a huge proportion of his workforce.........
Bassalies 1 year ago
@skcodyerrus The average no-show rate due to crew striking at LGW was approx 3 or 4 crew across each strike weekend and apparently the average crew sickness rate on a normal weekend at LGW is about 10 crew, so in real terms crew attendance levels improved across the strike weekends.

Yesterday a resolution was unanimously passed that our branch donate £2,000 to the Unite and BASSA fighting funds in support of the British Airways Cabin Crew. With other branches all over Britain putting forward similar motions, I fully expect a substantial sum of money to reach our brothers and sisters within the next week or so.

When BA announced record losses of £401 million in July of last year, Walsh announced that he would work for free in July. He has declined his bonus for the past three years however, last year £90,000 was paid into his pension pot and similar amounts were deposited in the previous two. He has since accepted a 6% pay rise, taking his salary to £735,000. The BA cabin crews` basic pensionable pay is £13,000 and not £30,000 as stated in this un-researched claptrap.
skcodyerrus 1 year ago 2
@skcodyerrus You have quoted the STARTING pay for new contract cabin crew - crew are on an incremental scale with yearly increases in pay - so the reality is crew have also have a pay increase this year, this is part of their contract as is Willies pay rise. Whereas the rest of the airline is on a performance related pay and haven't received an increase in over two years. You also 'forgot' to include the generous allowances the crew receive which can add over £1000 per month to the crew pay.
Bassalies 1 year ago
@Bassalies BA are a militant management who want to impose changes to The cabin crews` contracts rather than negotiate. Staffing levels have been cut by 25% on short haul flights. Not only has this compromised safety, it has deminished the service offered to customers by British Airways. The cabin crew have agreed to take a two year payfreeze but refuse to let Walsh compromise safety.
skcodyerrus 1 year ago
@skcodyerrus You agreed to take the same pay freeze the rest of BA have already taken on top of Job Cuts, Pay Cuts and Performanace Improvements - You still have a long way to go to catch up with the rest of airline. Stop feeling hard done by and grow up. The reduction in Crew on the aircraft has been proved to have no effect of safety - but Militant Crew sulking has a BIG effect!
Bassalies 1 year ago
@Bassalies (aka management lies). I have not agreed to take a pay freeze. I do not feel hard done by because I enjoy an excellent rate of pay, very good terms and conditions and I am a member of a well financed final salary pension scheme. I am not a member of Unite or BASSA.

@bayleafdog Competition gluts our markets and in order for BA to survive, it needs to make cuts. Unfortunately it`s the cabin crew who has been made to pay.

@skcodyerrus The rest of the airline has had a continual evolution of terms and conditions over the last 5-10 years including job cuts, pay cuts and improvements in working practices.
Contrast that with cabin crew who have sulked and had a hissy fit - the standard answer from Bassa has been 'NO, now whats the question?' Instead of making a number of smaller manageable changes, crew are making all the required improvements in one hit. This is largely thanks to Bassa.

@Bassalies The Sun newspaper today reported that 227 flights were cancelled at Heathrow airport yesterday. Anything I read in any of Murdoch`s rags I usually take with a pinch of salt. However as News International is fiercely anti trade unions, I suspect that this number maybe even higher.

What has been achieved through the strike?
1. Widespread public condemnation
2. Cabin crew bringing shame on our community with WW faces etc.
3. Loss of revenue
4. BA still not negotiating
5. Strikers losing pay and staff travel
6. A now divided workforce - strikers and non-strikers
7. Unite still no further forward than they were a week/month/year ago.

@BullyWalsh We were offered the same share deal as the pilots THREE times but Bassa rejected them without consultation of the membership.

@BullyWalsh The Pilots offered and took a PERMANENT pay cut of 2.61% AND a 20% reduction in their flying pay as well as other changes to working practices. What have Cabin Crew done - refused to accept the company is in trouble, will only accept temporary cuts with full paybacks and cost the company millions in an unnecessary strike! We were offered the same share deal as the pilots THREE tmes but was rejected without consultation of the membership. Well Done Bassa!

@Bassalies So are you a management lackey using this medium to spread your vile propaganda and lies? Are you a Scab? Are you working for that well known firm of management consultants who are fuelling this whole dispute?

1. An Extra FREE Staff travel Ticket
2. Shares
3. Bonus Payment
4. Monthy Travel Payment at 2008/2009 rates
5. Three Year Pay deal
5. Rights for Unite to negotigate on route transfers to NF

@Bassalies Please would you elaborate on the details of the three year pay offer? Was the current RPI figure brought into the equation? What did management want in return for this? A three year pay deal would never of been acceptable given the uncertainties of the world economy. What was the value of the proposed bonus payment?

BA cabin crew are blinkered to the recent upheavals, but we are in crisis: several airlines such as EOS, Maxjet, Silverjet, XL Airways and FlyGlobespan, JAL have gone bust, others like bmi and Aer Lingus are cutting back, BA is losing £1.6m a day. BA has a new fleet at lower cost and might further reduce costs in future. Of course, nobody likes this, but the bottom line is this.
BA cabin crew have got jobs right now and must play their part in saving the company

Well said mate.
BA cabin crew are living in a dream world.... they're causing a lot of crap for ordinary families for very little reason.... 'bully management' - pathetic.
When the Iberia merger happens and BA staff start to loose there job - we all know the strikers will be the first to get shown the door - and when they are, they'll get absolutely no sympathy from the rest of us.

So what exactly have you contributed to society? Fuck all no doubt. I bet you've never held down a job for more than a week and that you were on minimum wage. I bet you've never paid a penny in tax yet you think you have the right to slag off hard working people. At least we know what you look like. We will be doing you a favour when we rearrange your face.

what are YOU contributing to society "2010 strike"? apparently - violence and threats. stop being such an insecure HATER. find a better way to make your point. so if ppl disagree with you you smash their face? you represent everything wrong with the world. and for the record - i would have been interested in trying to actually understanding the strike - instead of hearing your garbage. waste.
