Hiflyer14 that is absolute rubbish. WW cannot legally force new contracts or new terms on anyone as long as you don't violate your contract. (Strikes, Lockouts, Work to Rule, Sick-Ins - in short, any form of industrial action that is not carried out to the letter of the law could be construed as breaking of contracts.)

The registering of a "Failure to Agree" is serious, but doesn't mean that our Trades Unions have failed you - far from it! We haven't sold you into the life of the Lo-Cos!

Stand firm - there's still parleying to be done. If the management have any sense, they will get back with ACAS next week and try to budge slightly.

Interestingly enough, the management are absolutely furious at the deal done with BALPA for it has certainly queered the pitch!
