BALPA is being sued for the damage caused to BA's reputation and business by the strike ballot.
What a state of affairs - you didn't go on strike but BALPA is being sued because you
considered going on strike.
If BA suceed in financially breaking BALPA I would imagine the whole affair might end up as an 'own goal' as employee/management relations drop to an all time low in all departments.
Mybe Mr Walsh could consider bringing back 'People in Business' to try and sort out the mess that will follow.
