I assume you find it absolutely unfair that a BA UK member has to pay 160K (+$1200) for a return in J to BKK from LHR whilst you can do it for 150K (+$150) in F from JFK?
Sorry to be pedantic but in the UK that would be libel* as they have published their comments on the internet, slander is the transitory form usually but not limited to speech (My media law lecturer would either be very proud or have fainted from the shock, that I remembered that).

Other than that I'm with you on this maybe BA should sue them.

*not to be confused with Libel - Australian for price tag
