I meant the appeal hearing hasn’t yet happened. Mind you, I’m not sure if he has actually formally lodged an appeal yet.
…..so what the hell are the Union up to then? (rhetorical II, not directed at you!  ) If the guy still has recourse to be reinstated via that route, why start sabre rattling and balloting for strike action in this way? (………...or could it be, I wonder, that the Union think that the threat of strikes in support of Bruvver Frederick, the "highly regarded Union Activist", around the run up to Christmas will give them more leverage?) |

That’s the question GWR▸ management are asking as well. |

All you have seen is from the RMT▸ . Obviously there is another side to it. It is just possible that the RMT's statement contained less than 100% of the known facts (including what is alleged and disputed), and it may even not have been perfectly objective in what it did say. |

Indeed, the CCTV▸ may have caught the reaction, the RMT▸ choosing not to mention this....

Not sure if it really belongs in this thread ... another story from the BBC» Six Ryanair cabin crew members pictured sleeping on the floor of a Spanish airport office last month have been sacked, the airline says. (I will split to a separate thread if this springs a tangential discussion) |

Damned right. Surely they should be expected to pay Michael O'Leary for the privilege of sleeping on a Ryanair floor?

Very odd decision to try and make their company look bad (won't open that can of worms), they never had to sleep on that floor so seems strange why they would share the picture? |

Reading the RMT▸ site, one question, why do they keep referring to the guy as "Brother"?

Well, it's either that or 'Comrade'... In the current climate it should be non gender specific.........sibling? |

Surely 'Comrade' is non-gender already?

Either term is redolent of the kind of socialism that looks like a damp breeze block and smells of stale wee. Why do they feel the need to use any kind of title? |
