I've had enough of these union wankers pissing everyone off, they might fuck up my holiday in a week and a half. If people don't like their job they should just fuck off and get another, free market and all that. All this 1970's union bullshit reeeeeeeeally gets on my tits........... Angry

NOT HAPPY..............

LOL

"Unite is also calling for staff to receive a £450 bonus, which had been promised to them if the company had met a certain earnings target.

BAA, which is owned by Spain's Ferrovial, missed the target by 3%. However, Unite said staff deserve financial recognition for coming so close."

maybe the staff should get paid for picketing as well? I mean, they'll be close to work!

Unions absolutely disgust me, they should be removed from existence.

If the BAA staff arent happy then GTFO and work for someone else.

One time Hopkin for PM. Britain would be a great place once more.

Agreed, the BA thing really pissed me off. A company makes a loss of £300m or so and they bleat on, they're lucky to have a damn job

Still negotiating, sounds like the union want a counter off and are not as hell bent on a strike as BA were. We will probably know mon/tues if they are going to strike. 23rd is the earliest dater they can strike but the may well go for the bank holiday weekend if they do.
