No Kidding?? I guess you missed out the bit that about them reading it first??

Why did BA ignore ACAS and not reconvene the meeting where they withdrew the offer? The Union had agreed to meet at ACAS and call off the strike if this had been done.
ACAS were not happy with WW attitude and remarks made that were incorrect.

The point is that this is the sort of dispute that polarises opinion to the point that the facts get totally distorted. Either in the Media or on sites like this there are comments made that soon become accepted as fact when it's just an opinion.

I have no more flights booked with BA so the dispute has no affect on my travelling. I do think though that the dispute will have far reaching effects through out the country that will impact on everyone and not for the good whichever side you back.....
