Pink he doesn't find them argumentative. Obstinate would be a better word. The problem is that obstinacy serves no purpose, as it would not reduce in any way the amount of savings IFCE have to find. It simply means a solution would be imposed rather than negotiated, and there's only going to be one winner if that happens. The millions Willie wants are not up for negotiation. They are going to be found one way or the other, and as BA controls the purse strings they have the stronger hand.
