Further backlash from Lord Adonis's interview on the Andrew Marr show.
From the Daily Mail.
Lord Adonis dares to condemn BA strikes as 'totally unjustified' | Mail Online
In particular:
Privately, union officials were said to be 'livid' with Lord Adonis, one saying he had 'blundered' into the dispute without knowing all the facts.
I would have thought he has a fair grasp of the facts
and next paragraph!:
Unite boss Derek Simpson said: ‘I’d be quite upset if I thought he knew what he was talking about.’
Of course he would be, he has been found out!
This dispute has always had the hint of an internal powerplay. Now it has gone external and the government is becoming embarassed.

If it was a test of who could hold their breath the longest, BASSA and the CC would last only a few seconds. Though the strike is not a foregone conclusion, if it goes ahead, I cannot seeing it lasting for long due to the striking CC returning to work (assuming of course they went on strike in the first place!).
