Same old story....
The pro-BASSA posters here appear to have faled to grasp that it is BASSA themselves that have caused imposition.
Back in Jan/Feb 2009 WW gave each deprtment their savings target, the deadline was June 30th 2009. WW stated that if agreement could not be reached then an IMPOSED settlement would occur. Early in July BASSA held a mass meeting at Kempton where they had 3 votes by show of hands - one of which was to NO LONGER NEGOTIATE.
So BASSA had the "we're not talking mandate", WW had his "I'm going to IMPOSE..." and that's exactly what he did.
Now he has said that he will remove staff travel privaledges from striking crew, and he did.
Do you see a theme here? Still think that staff travel will be coming back to striking crew, I know what I'd put the mortgage on.
