Wasn't the offer to Unite to which they refer, and the two-week extension BA was offering during which they could poll their members, contingent upon Unite not announcing strike dates during that time?
But then they went ahead and announced strike dates anyway, violating their agreement with Walsh?
So the extension agreement between BA and Unite to let them review this and vote on it was null and void?
So that's why the offer was rescinded by BA? Or was that not good info?
This is why I think BA's offer was rescinded.
Let's say that BA made an offer that saves the company £60 per annum. But before this offer can be put to a ballot, as requested by Derek Simpson (Unite’s joint general secretary), strikes are called which will cost BA. So, as the cost-cutting calculations in BA's offer are immediately invalidated, the offer itself is therefore invalidated.
