Heckybaby,
I understand exactly what you saying, but I think you are confusing the court case and the ballot - they are separate issues according to Bassa.
The court case is concerned with whether the changes are contractual or not.
BASSA can no more strike about non contractual changes than they can strike over what aircraft BA decides to buy. The real issue is therefore if the changes are contractual or not. If they are not, than BASSA has no legal grounds for a strike. It really is end of story then. Ballot or no ballot.
Agreed - but Bassa are not balloting over contractual or non-contractual changes.
Bassa are balloting over the fact that changes have been imposed.
It matters not what the actual changes are - just the fact that changes have been made.
This is conversation is going around in circles, I don't know if Bassa's point of view is legally correct and I certainly don't agree with balloting again, Bassa believe that they can strike over any issue they disagree with, this is their stance at the moment
