Just looked at the interview again and the BBC report that WW he was willing to meet them in Manchester - Unite turned that down. Simpson said that WW then said he could "meet them the week after next." Simpson was staggered by that. Wonder what he was expecting?
As for Duncan Holley I still say that he should keep his mouth shut. I could never be persuaded that ANYONE who is not recognised as representing BASSA members. i.e. by default he no longer has contact with BA since being sacked by them or the office facilities that BA provided. His position in a court of law would almost certainly be persona non grata. Unless an eagle can tell us otherwise.
