Romans I do hear what you are saying re:imposition and how it is not ideal... what happens if as a company you negotiate for 9 months change a few proposals and the union refuse to negotiate unless it is on their terms. IE. walking out of meetings etc when BA give presentation etc. Company is bleeding cash... can the company wait forever until BASSA agree to something the company do which could be never?? The imposition was not about pay etc either which they could have done.
