What you did to us is unconscionable.
I remember the awful, sunken feeling we had listening to PM and his gang of henchmen at the CGN roadshow desperately trying to sell us that junk. RB straight of lying about how ASL wasn’t growing in Europe, while it actually was— right in front of our eyes.
Minus all the booms in the room, it was dead on arrival after that cheap talk. After his comments about the pension, and how we had a responsibility to take care of our retiring pilots… oh but just forget about your junior self, for the sake of these rich guys. Our esteemed block rep, FF, couldn’t wait to vote yes and sell us all out for his personal gain! Ha. Look how that worked out for you. Unbelievable!
