Who is this BASSA who is to be swept away, or shot like a rabid dog, or destroyed etc etc etc.........

Is Mr/Mrs BASSA reading this thread and feeling threatened by physical violence?
BASSA (the current leadership eg. Reps) seem to have followed a course of action that has led them to a situation whereby there 90%+ YES vote for strike action will see WW keep 60%+ of flights operating. BASSA (the Reps) thought it would be like the good old days, 2 days of T1 car park full of tents, stranded pax and TV cameras interviewing anyone they could find before BA caved in.

Well this time they misjudged it and I doubt they're feeling threatened. If they have anything to fear its their own membership next week rather than anything anyone could scribble on this Forum. The current leadership are already 'Swept Away' because even UNITE is willing to dump them to get a settlement.

No one hates crew, no one wants to see crew sold into slavery, but neither do we want to see a few selected individuals IMPOSE militancy on the rest of us. I said impose, that's funny.
