BA avoids 'uproar' as Willie Walsh turns down annual bonus

10 June 2010

Commenting on the news today (Thursday) that BA's chief executive Willie Walsh will not take his performance bonus this year, Unite's assistant general secretary, Len McCluskey, said:

"There would have been uproar if Mr Walsh had pocketed a bonus this year.

"His plans for BA have seen it become a byword for bullying, driven customers into the arms of competitors, poisoned working relations and is denying the airline a peaceful, stable future.

"This is not success, it is ruination of a great British company.

"There should be no bonus and no mega-pot of shares until BA sorts the cabin crew dispute."
