I know where the picket lines are going to be, and its not going to be in any areas that are important, I was just wondering why BASSA had not told their members that they were not going to marching up and down T5 chanting disparaging slogans at those crew electing to work I imagine some may feel very disappointed
I know, I said to my friend 'You will not be allowed to picket inside T5' and he was quite shocked and said 'Where is it going to be then?' I went on to explain that you need BAA permission to do things like that in their terminal. Does anyone remember the Green protest a few years ago at LHR and how much security was around - you could hardly go anywhere around LHR without seeing some kind of security presence.

I have noted that BASSA is not exactly advertising the fact that they will not be allowed to picket inside T5. One of the reasons could be that crew are scared to cross a picket line and so may stay away from work and go on strike. Because, for me, one of the major concerns I have is people being able to go into work if they wish to.

What does everyone else think?
