Despite the spin that the guys on CF are trying to put on this (suggesting this is a reasonable result as the judge has set a trial date), perhaps we should remember what we were told this injunction was about. This was merely to stop BA imposing their working practices on the 16th November. It appears this injunction has been denied.
In that respect, BASSA has failed in the petition it submitted. What interests me now is whether or not, whilst this court case remains on the docket, a strike ballot can now be called and actioned in the intervening period.
Before either side claims victory, it will be worth knowing exactly what will be brought to trial in February and, thus, whether or not this is a result of this injunction hearing or (as I suspect is more likely) part of Unite's plan all along.
