Today I made sure to ask @grantshapps about the urgent need for support for communities like Hounslow who rely heavily on aviation.
I urged Govt to follow Germanys example of A.) Sector specific support for aviation industry B.) Covid-testing at airports... 1/2
Been a lot of superior and unpleasant tweets/replies on here (some directed at those of us standing by our union) regarding BALPA and their ‘grown up’ approach to negotiating. Not to mention British Airways’ reminders of BALPA’s willingness to come to the table...🤨
This is imperative for the survival of thousands upon thousands of airline & travel industry jobs!
Stop paying lip service .@BorisJohnson
Stand up & govern you COWARD!
@BASSA_2000 It already has. It’s revitalised it’s poor maintenance leading to multiple fume events. World beating filthy cabins. Disinterested staff. Out of date uniforms. Incompetent, greedy CEO. To cap it all a fifth rate IT system bought on the cheap on e bay. Job done! Well done Alex👏
The exploitative practice of firing & rehiring workers on vastly inferior conditions is being operated by companies like @British_Airways & @CentricaPLC. I urge MPs to back the new Bill to counter this & support the #BAbetrayal Pledge to #TakeBackTheSlots: https://t.co/zloSwytBnM
Bike to remain in shed this week because the wheels have fallen off the A Level and GCSE grading system. It’s not ideal but I hope we accept teacher grading. Young people have had a rough deal this year so who would begrudge them getting some respite and upside?
Clean aircraft?! The words don't go together. I've been cleaning and sanitising my work area onboard for 18 years! The wipes are always filthy..get your act together BA.

@azurmar09 @JulieJayarrow1 @HuwMerriman@SITCPLA_Iberia Sadly September 16 is too late. BA workers have been forced to make awful decisions at a time when most were on furlough. Unfair, unjust. Airline changed forever and no jobs saved. Salaries slashed for many remaining. #shameonBA#nationaldisgrace
Worker’s rights set back decades. Workers forced into accepting redundancy as option of #fireandrehire a worse outcome for them. Shame on all of you. @BorisJohnson@RishiSunak you have let a cash rich company abuse the #JRS. @Keir_Starmer where have you been? All useless.
.@IainDale on BA's statement - "You know ladies and gentlemen, that is the kind of guff that you get from a company PR department," screwing up the message from the airline Iain said, "it really isn't worth the paper it's written on."

@Dylan76694485 @ITVJoel@BBCNews@SkyNews@Grahamhiscott Also, had it confirmed that new entrant cabin crew that were stood down from their training course, and yet to finish it, have kept their jobs.
