BA cabin crew strike: bitter, bitter, bitter

The British Airways cabin crew strike is turning into one of the most bitter industrial disputes in the UK of the past few years.

CabinCrew_resizex.jpgYesterday BA's lawyers got the latest strike action overturned on a technicality.

Here's an interesting video - using actors - made by the union that pits a notional cabin attendant against an unfeeling BA manager. It's entitled "Brutish Airways".

And finally, note the small head this guy is holding in his hand - who could it be? I had some others of Willie Walsh being held by cabin crew but some were defaced and a bit rude! Oddly enough I don't think Willie would mind if I published those but I do.

BA's cabin crew provide average service (at best) at well above average cost, BA seeks to change that and I hope they do.

Sack the bloody lot that whent on, what may now turn out to have been an illegal, strike.
