BA launches investigation - employee posted offensive comments on social media
Not sure if this has been noted on the Forum yet, but looks like an MF crewmember has got herself into a spot of bother.

The crewmember, who was discussing her perceptions prior to her flight to Lagos, makes a number of rather odd observations, some of which I genuinely don't understand!
BA seem to be investigating, but definitely not a pleasant news story.

Would you mind putting a summary of this link online too, in conformance with FT's policy on external URLs? Since there isn't a hyperlink markup around the quote in your post, it won't be easy for some devices to get to that link.

Interesting how the post doesn't have a hyperlink but the forum notification email does have it hyperlinked.
As for the young 'lady' in question, one can only gasp at her stupidity on so many levels.

Oh dear. You're going to have to explain your thread title too or direct people to a site like Urban Dictionary.

What a complete idiot.
On a side note, why the DM thought BBC was better rendered as B** I cannot fathom.

Not racist imo , but she clearly doesn't seem like the most intellectually smartest individual either nor am I sure BA want people thinking people like her work for them...
