`` and that this dispute would now be settled by the use of power on both sides.``
Very interesting!
As I see it BASSA have no power in this dispute BA hold all the aces now , strike or no strike.
BUT I guess it wouldn`t be wise to underestimate the influence and connection with Mr Whelan to the government and any pressure that may come from that direction. It seems that Mr Brown is not the only one under pressure for alledged bullying and Mr Whelans alledged style may cause a rift in that relationship. Mandy and Whelan do not enjoy the best of friendships as a side issue.
WW has not got on well with governments in the past though has he. Remember EI was a state owned carrier BA is not. So do you think WW will bow to political pressure?
Is this a battle Brown will want to get involved in particulalry as polls show very little public support for BA cabin crew. Will he want to be associated with the `loony left`?
I think not!
But may be the only hope BASSA have.
