The strike ballot will define where BASSA are now. 75%+ yes after all of the company and media hype, means that it is the crew and crew alone that have made the statement. There will be no blaming of the BASSA reps at all.
This would be true if the union were providing its members with all relevant information in a clear, concise, and most importantly, reserved manner. It would seem apparent from the majority of the BA employees involved in this thread that all indications are that this is far from being the case in this situation.
Whilst ignorance of the issues is hardly an excuse, some of the union's behaviour throughout this matter has been completely disingenuous, and in the case of their missives directed at BALPA and the PCCC, contemptible. Some of what has been coming out from the top of BASSA in recent weeks would be more at home in a school playground, not a situation of this gravity.
I'm certain BA are going to take any kind of bullying and harassment, or related behaviours, extremely seriously over the next few weeks. The consequences of that for anyone involved are likely to be dire, and the supposed leaders are doing their members a severe disservice in planting the idea that such behaviour is acceptable.
