A Pyrrhic victory for BASSA
I find it remarkable that BASSA-ites regard today's events as a massive victory which is going to force leverage on WW.
WW and the board have a corporate responsibility to protect the company by all means at their disposal; hence the move for an injunction to prevent industrial action.
What have UNITE achieved today? They have won the right to appeal and won the appeal to have that injunction overturned. What else? Nothing, nada, diddly squat, bugger all.
What have BA and WW achieved over the past few days? A postponement of industrial action; meanwhile, the clock keeps ticking away, tick tock tick tock to the day when he has carte blanche power and legal right to fundamentally change the face of BA CC and kick out the militant deadwood that is the BASSA stalwarts.
BA is no weaker from today's events. BASSA should be very, very worried.
