a bit simplistic?

this dispute started with a very disgruntled bunch of BA employees.
Voting to strike.
Flyluke. Arent you forgetting however, that the reason the employees were disgruntled, was that THEIR union told them the action to reduce the crew numbers was imposition- unreasonable, unecessary and illegal (now shown by high court not to be any of the above), and also dont forget that the reason it was imposed, was that the union failed to negotiate.

So it could all have been avoided if UNITE/BASSA had properly negotiated in the first place.
