My understanding of the minimum negotiating rights of any recognition agreement is pay, hours of work and holiday. Working down attracts a payment, therefore comes under pay, which forms part of your contractual terms and conditions.
But if the contractual terms and conditions don't stipulate working complements on board, which is what BA claim (and which most reasonable observers would agree is something that the company should be able to decide), then you aren't working one down.
Secondly, I'm not sure that such payments constitute part of your pay.
