I answered Henkybaby's question - it's not my personal opinion.

BA would not be able to remove the imposition today and top up all of its aircraft tomorrow because there's not enough crew - even de facto there are many crew on 24 hour standby. BASSA could agree with BA to work down temporarily for some time and return as many crew members as possible - that might be sufficient enough for them to call off the strike.

Unless BASSA can present a serious saving plan which meets the saving demand - BA will not remove the imposition.

Is UNITE striking against its own incompetence?

UNITE is calling for a strike because BA made this imposition - whether UNITE is to be held responible is not relevant according to Miss Malone.
