It would be very interesting to find out how they came to a decision not to recommend this very generous offer (my view), prior to it being withdrawn.
(I think that's what was said at their press conference yesterday, please correct me if I am wrong).
Was it put to a vote of the reps, if so who voted for what etc?
Their members have a right to know that, after all they represent them and may stand for re-election - democracy and all that.
BA offered to reinstate an equivalent of 184 full time crew into Euro Fleet and World Wide, but Unite wants 700.
Crew should have been balloted on this offer (as Derek Simpson wanted over a three-week period) but Len McCluskey didn't give crew the chance.
This highlights the divide in Unite.
