Pilots strike over northern mistreatment
Almost 500 pilots are to stage a strike next Tuesday and Wednesday.
The pilots' union said it would not allow Belfast based pilots to be treated as "second class citizens", according to Irish state broadcaster RTE.
I guess this dispels the oft-mentioned theory from unionists that in a united Ireland the south of Ireland wouldn't give a toss about the north!
Fair play to the pilots. I wish them well.
