Interesting comment from Tony Woodley in The Telegraph:

The leader of the cabin crew accused the airline of being ''vindictive'' as he claimed the cost-cutting row which sparked strikes had now been settled.

Tony Woodley, joint leader of Unite, said an agreement had been reached in principle on a deal which would resolve the original dispute over pay, jobs and working practices, including staffing levels on flights. The dispute was being prolonged because BA was refusing to fully restore travel concessions to staff who went on strike in March, and over the suspension and sacking of over 50 cabin crew, said Mr Woodley.
So the strike is now solely about restoring ST and cancelling disciplinaries. I wonder if CC have been informed of this?
