Not been past them, but the weather says to expect rain shortly. Will that
be the end of the protests?

I wondered that. I went past T4 this morning and there was small
presence but nothing like the numbers peviously seen.

Though GG failed to stop the protests they did manage to limit the number of
protestors to 5.

Looks as though GG are about to go belly up so it will be lot more than
670 out of a job. I wonder who the unions will go and thump then.

What's the betting they go broke one Friday and re-emerge the following
Monday as Gay Gourmet?

It's already what many in the meeja have been calling them since this
malarkey started.

BA properly. Unions never let reality get in the way of a good fight.

Unlikely; BA still needs the service, so many/most will be likely to
get a job in whatever organisation takes over.

The impression I get suggests to me that Gate Gourmet deserve to go
out of business.

They were saying that no other airline caterers have the capacity to
take on BA if GG was to vanish. I guess someone will buy the
operation, renegotiate the contract with BA and either re-employ the
staff on less £ or get cheaper staff in. Sad but likely...

It is being rumoured that BA might buy it back themselves. I would be
very interested to see what happens then...

Do GG have anything to do with RailGourmet, out of interest? If not,
I wonder how such similar names ended up existing?

The same thought passed through my mind as I walked through King's
Cross last week.
