I was initially invited to this having been instrumental in bringing one of the cases to tribunal without any help or assistance from Bectu who suggested I didn't rock the boat.. Sadly I did and it is a shame because there are other issues that could have been tackled as well. But hey BECTU and FAA keep going as you are - we wont rock the boat and ruin your key executives £250k annual salaries and pensions.
