One of the CC posters on the other thread seems to think the real argument is about a 'new' redeployment agreement! The fact that the offer to CC has no mention of any revised redeployment agreement, so they wouldn't be signing to up to anything re that, and that if BA wants to do this (as well it might) it will need to be company wide as was the Pension agreement, seems to have escaped him/her.
Agreed any new redeployment agreement may well need serious union attention, but that is not what the current strike is about. But it seems that BASSA may have succeeded in making CC vote on the basis of something that has not happened yet - and if it does Unite who represent many BA staff (as opposed to BASSA who represent CC only) genuinely need to negotiate from a position of strength, which BASSA is undermining.
