Break the strike?

Have you not listened to any of BASSA's latest communication? They say BA cannot discriminate people for taking industrial action - which they would by removing staff travel permanently for those not turning up for duty.

Others do not believe BA will do it - as the case was during the strike in 1997 when it was removed during the strike and when it was over put in place. They constantly saying they had the same threats now as then - they have no idea. In 1997 they said staff travel would be removed during the strike - this time to be removed permanently.

And - BASSA is convinced they will be able to demand that staff travel is reinstated before they sign any deal - laughable.
