That newsletter says that there is to be a Joint Union Meeting on 6 September at Kempton Park
British Airways CEO is simply not interested in a different deal, he prefers a strike and he wants it now - as soon as possible.
If he does not, he will get his strike, but not necessarily at a time that is so convenient for him. Make sense?
It seems to me that excuses are being cobbled up to explain why no Industrial Action will take place before the upcoming Union elections.
