I predict a mass Covid app delete on the back of the Johnson & Sunak news.

We have never seen such a spineless, self serving, self entitled, lying, law breaking arrogant bunch of gutless imbecilic incompetents in high office. That anyone actually voted for this lot is simply beyond comprehension

British Airways imposing 40% wage cut & redundancies, others will follow suit. People won't have purchasing power to buy goods/services. A vicious spiral, economy can't be rebuilt. Govt needs to act. All financial support conditional upon jobs and wages.

@aliosborne20 Strange that out of 650 MPs, 3 large unions, and widespread national press coverage, yours is the only voice to condone the appalling actions of BA mgmt. And one person has yet to like this tweet. Perhaps reconsider your own judgement first. #babetrayal #NationalDisgrace

[SamW @SamWyogaguy]

Enough is enough. Not capable of or interested in real leadership. So much missed opportunity. BA and its staff deserve far better. What a shame. #NationalDisgrace #babetrayal

[Workers Strike Back @WorkerStrikeBck]

Questions are now being asked about the leadership of @British_Airways and Alex Cruz from all angles; Journalists, MP’s, staff and the public have major concerns about the direction he’s taking BA. #NationalDisgrace #BAbetrayal

Great to see press coverage of the @CommonsTrans report on diabolical actions of @British_Airways. BA's strategy to fire 42,000 workers, make 12,000 redundant and rehire 30,000 on a downgraded contract is an absolute national grace. They do not deserve to carry the British flag!

#StandWithBAWorkers Should BA go ahead with their proposals I will cut up the executive card I have carried for thirty years and avoid flying with them ever again.

[Sam Tarry @SamTarry]

Despite a £2.6 billion profit last year, @British_Airway plans to sack more than 42,000 workers & rehire only 30,000 on draconian contracts.

The epitome of corporate greed!

BA must work with @unitetheunion @GMB_union, @Bassa_2000 to find a better solution. #BAStopThinkAgain

[Workers Strike Back @WorkerStrikeBck]

Sophie on @LBC now. Her parents have over 60 years experience with @British_Airways "I'm meant to be going to University but I think I'm going to have to find a job to help pay the mortgage"
#BAbetrayal #backinthehold @IainDale RT & make Willlie Walsh listen to his staff

[SamW @SamWyogaguy]

@HuwMerriman your support & efforts are invaluable. Thank you for massively amplifying the plight & cause of all BA staff. #babetrayal

[Huw Merriman @HuwMerriman]

Written today to all MPs in response to an email we received from Willie Walsh. Yet to meet an MP not sticking up for #BA staff #BAbetrayal #backinthehold

@alexvisits a huge & heartfelt thank you from us all. Please sign & share #babetrayal

@IanKingSky when WW told you this yesterday, the new ‘fire & rehire’ 188 threat had already been issued to all BA pilots. Will you now invite him back and ask why he lied to you? Is his leadership worthy of our national flag carrier? #babetrayal

[Joel Hills @ITVJoel]

BA isn’t commenting. Yesterday Willie Walsh told Sky that BA faces “the greatest crisis the airline industry has ever seen”. He added: “I’m not involved in the consultations, it’s the responsibility of the BA managent team...the reports I get are that some progress has been made”

[SamW @SamWyogaguy]

Proof that BA management is on inexplicable self-destruct course, and has no intention of doing right by any of its workforce. BA mgmt completely unfit to lead our flag carrier. BA workforce deserve far better than this. #babetrayal @HuwMerriman @KellyTolhurst

[Joel Hills @ITVJoel]

Brian Strutton, of @BALPApilots, says he’s “appalled at the cavalier attitude shown by BA...It calls into question whether BA is even capable of conducting industrial relations properly and whether anything they say can be trusted.” He says talks with airline:”hang by a thread.”

[YogaNinja @ninja_yoga]

The CEO of IAG is Irish. BA is the cash cow for IAG yet BA staff are being targeted. Interviews have shown blatant & arrogant contempt for Britain, the British public and the U.K. Government. Will Spanish CEO Gallego protect the UK? #enoughnow #BAbetrayal #KeepTheBritishInBA

[SamW @SamWyogaguy]

@IanKingSky @AstraZeneca @Rathbones1742 @SkyNews Journalism? @IanKingSky just a mouthpiece for Walsh. V disappointing. You realise virtually entire UK, press, & parliament strongly condemn his actions right now? Yet you don’t challenge him on this? Gross misjudge of national mood by both Walsh and you. What a shame. #babetrayal

[Chris Evans MP @Chris_EvansMP]

I have asked for a meeting with Willie Walsh of @British_Airways regarding BA redundancies but he has so far ignored my request. This is not good enough when jobs are on the line. Let’s see if he responds this time. Here’s a copy of my letter:
