Time is running out for the unions - and the Labour Party

I note that there are 74 days until Thursday, 5 May 2010: a probable date for a UK general election.

Following their spiteful and destructive actions over the last few months, BA cabin crew and their BASSA union are about as popular as poison in this country.

Highly publicised industrial action by British Airways' cabin crew is the very last thing in the world that Gordon Brown needs if he wants to renew his lease on 10 Downing Street for another five years.

I can see extreme political pressure being placed on each and every union faction to prevent any enforced eviction that might be caused (in no small part) by BASSA/Amicus/Unite stupidity and selfishness.
