PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
BRITISH AIRWAYS MIXED FLEET CABIN CREW PAY DISPUTE (9 February 2017)

Motion Details

That this House supports workers in British Airways Mixed Fleet cabin crew in their current industrial dispute over pay; condemns the significant pay package of £6.5 million to the boss of the airline's parent company, International Airlines Group; contrasts that package with reports that the starting basic pay of a member of Mixed Fleet cabin crew is roughly 533 times lower than that figure and thus below the living wage; notes the lack of parity in allowances to cover food between Mixed Fleet cabin crew and pilots; and calls on British Airways to engage in constructive relations with Unite to resolve the dispute.
