Therefore removal of staff travel as a form of punishment because you disagree with someone's opinion and not because they have done something wrong could well be considered as bullying and seriously backfire on BA.
I don't see this as removal of the perk just because WW disagreed with CC's opinion.
There had been many months where it would appear that BA attempted to talk but BASSA stonewalled.
WW was quite clear that if no effective solution was in place by June he would have to impose a solution and that deadline was extended to allow BASSA to get their act together and have effective discussion.
WW responded to BASSA 's call for damaging industrial action against BA by telling them he could not continue to give a generous perk to anybody who took damaging action against the company.
The real surprise here was for striking CC that they could not bite the hand that feeds them without some retaliation.
