I think it is too late now. Unite should have stepped in weeks ago when they (should have had) identified that this was no longer about real threats to the working conditions of their membership but that it was becoming a personal vendetta of the BASSA leadership.

They should not have allowed the lying. They should have recognized that it was them (not BA) who failed to negotiate. The lies and deceit are still going on (see the latest communication) and that is just plain wrong. BASSA leadership is now abusing its membership (and ruining their employer in the process) to save personal face.

Somebody needs to step in and say 'enough is enough. New team and back to the negotiating table!'

In my dreams though...
