What I find the saddest is that BASSA and the minions are portraying being force to strike action as a victory against BA?
Surely, as in war, Conflict is the ultimate proof that meaningful diplomacy has failed.
BASSA may crow and clap and cheer as much as they want I, personally, think they are in for a shock as I and many others are prepared to cover other tasks to keep the airline and all those sensible cabin crew flying.
BASSA have FAILED their membership by leading them into the position that BA want them. Where BA can sue the union and destroy it for good.
Seeing those things coming and avoiding them whilst protecting the membership is what a Union should be. A 'No' ranting strike touting propaganda machine is what BASSA have.
And no, the travelling public don't like you. ABBA is now in effect due to the intransigence of a Union that failed to negotiate.
Anywhere But BA.
