The UK aviation sector is in crisis and urgently needs support. Please add your name to this petition asking the Government to extend furlough for the sector and save jobs. petition.parliament.uk/petit…

🛬 UK aviation has suffered twice the job losses than France and Germany and it's well over a year since the chancellor promised a support package for the sector. While he continues to fail to deliver, workers pay the price.

.@Forbes - "When Sir Colin Marshall retired, the BA approach changed from customer-focused to cost-cutting." @British_Airways seems intent on destroying what was once the 'World's Favourite Airline'. #BAbetrayal

5/6 Si compra @AirEuropa, #IAG tendrá todavía más poder monopolístico sobre la aviación en España, lo que dañará los derechos de los consumidores. ¿Por qué el Gobierno de España apoya este acuerdo con un rescate millonario?

5/6 If it buys up @AirEuropa, #IAG will have even greater monopoly power in Spanish aviation, hurting consumer rights. So why is the Spanish government supporting this deal with a multi-million bailout?

The exploitative practice of firing & rehiring workers on vastly inferior conditions is being operated by companies like @British_Airways & @CentricaPLC. I urge MPs to back the new Bill to counter this & support the #BAbetrayal Pledge to #TakeBackTheSlots: shorturl.at/grEF2
