Not even the union is against changes but it should be done through negotiation and not imposition. We have offered BA generous offers and our last proposal was only £10 million from what they are asking for. They refused it and to be honest I don't even believe WW has ever been looking for a settlement because he has had his mind set for a strike.

You patently do not understand what you are talking about and are literally spouting irrational nonsense, apparently driven by emotion.
Fine.

An inflated idea of their importance in the scheme of things?

Everybody knew what would happen if they went on strike. Nobody would argue this. They announced before the strike that staff travel would be removed permanently and they were hoping that it would change the mind of some because staff travel is prescious to many. Surprisingly many of the striking crew were commuters.

It's interesting to see that many don't think of this as a punishment because that's exactly what it is.
