We do and it's a great shame that some find it funny to make light of a situation which could cause people to lose jobs at a time where there are little or none around to replace them.
We've been living with that threat for a few years now and it's far from pleasant and causes immense worry and anxiety. A number of us have been ill as a result of that anxiety too.
Thoughtless comment

PS - two things. If LGW is for the chop why did BA 1) send one of their most respected Directors to beef things up and make LGW profitable for BA (and be under no illusion, she's taking no nonsense from LHR) and 2) why are we spending money to move into a brand new state-of-the-art check in zone in just over a month?
