Brand new to this thread but I have read the other thread from the very start and as someone on the outside of this dispute I am rather disheartened with what I read.

It would seem that the BA CC fall into 3 distinct groups, BASSA hardliners, BASSA sheep and the BASSA timid. I know that is an gross over simplification of a very complex situation but sat on the outside it's what appears to be the case.

Based on the latest figures it would seem the BASSA timid are, and probably always have been, in the majority so for the life of me I cannot understand why those at the helm of the PCCC are not jumping up and down identifying themselves. This would give all those BASSA timid and other non union CC members a beacon to head for and send a real message to the minority of hardliners that there is a real alternative.

No offence was intended for the use of the word timid and I apologise in advance but I could not really think of another suitable descriptor
