This was the issue of a recent CAA FODCOM. The CAA are reluctant as I understand to get too involved so worded to the effect that "volunteers" would be dual based. A good example would be a seasonal base for Airline XX at LPL using crews from MAN most of whom live near LPL.
If my memory serves me rightly airlines have to apply to the CAA for the dual base. Clearly if its in a job offer your going to sign it, otherwise cause to complain a change to your contract ?
Just another way of saving money particularly if long flights involved
