Unite has today notified British Airways that it intends to open a ballot for strike action among Heathrow cabin crew.
From Gerrymandering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :
"Gerrymandering is a form of boundary delimitation (redistricting) in which electoral district or constituency boundaries are deliberately modified for electoral purposes, thereby producing a contorted or unusual shape. The resulting district is known as a gerrymander; however, that word can also refer to the process."

Presumably the "Unite" name is now being used ironically, as they are clearly going to play one base off against the other.
