Jean-Lill,
BASSA did
not inspect the accounts. They chose
not to! So how could they approach any negotiation with any sense of what was required? No, instead they chose their old hissy-fit tactics. They really just think that the worlds problems are eveybody else's problem.
And yes, BASSA did 'suggest' a 2.6% pay cut. But that was nothing more than a cut-and-paste (from amongst many sections) of part of the deal BALPA negotiated for the pilots. BASSA couldn't even be bothered to pluck it's own figure out of thin air - it had to copy the pilots! Even when BA didn't ask for a pay cut! Proves my point about their limited intellect, I think. Utterly devoid of any common sense or professionalism. Cabin crew at BA have been merely paying union subs for a 'cosy' but mindless committee who wouldn't know a barn door if they walked into it.
