Dominic Raab grilled by ITN on BA shedding jobs today at the daily press conference. I don't think the issue is going away any time soon

I think we need to drop Alex an email, and suggest the crew pay now be linked to the number of passengers on the aircraft - even though the number of crew required is mandated by law. He'll be keen I'm sure :-)

Talking about the law, Raffles,
I trust you will post the Lord Hendy note - on behalf of Unite - which WW has sent to the MPs. Unite told BA exactly what the law allowed!
I detest the way that BA has gone about this, but Unite told them what they had todo!!
How bizarre!

Careful Flygirl, someone might suggest that would give you enough time to have a sleep, what more do you need! Oh yes, remember you also need to make enough time to get down to the supermarket to buy yourself some food to prepare, you don’t deserve to eat in a restaurant like ordinary people do, you are only cabin crew and eating in your room should be more than enough for you.
all shall be. It’s going to be a wonderful place to work. I’m full of optimism all of a sudden. *wipes white powered from under nose* “of course sir, another Bloody Mary coming right up, just after I clean up all that vomit your child has spewed everywhere as a letting them eat a whole packet of wine gums was obviously a fantastic decision”. “I’m so happy to work here”.
as for the Nigels, it will be permanent ‘controlled rest’ from wheels up until flaps 1 on approach. Safety and customer satisfaction at it’s finest. I just hope they don’t dare offer the pax in F anything more than the slightly tarted up crew food in a box! Don’t want them getting away with it and costing the shareholder a penny in dividend payments now do we? “We are all in this together”.

No it doesn't. The Delta stake is worthless.
Any new investment could easily be done by issuing huge numbers of new shares, bought equally by Virgin Group and a new investor, which diluted Delta down to virtually zero. This is relatively common practice. Delta is not allowed to put more money into VS as a condition of its own bailout.

Folks, there have - once again - been far too many examples of rule 12 breaches and personal spats in yet another thread. The mod team members really, really have much better things to do than spend our time deleting posts from both sides of the argument, and this is becoming incredibly tiresome and frustrating. We’ve played out the explanation enough times as to how this petty squabbling drives people away from Flyertalk. Members really should be savvy enough to understand that.
So, enough. Thread closed.
