Mr Pony

Did you also note the use of the word we in DH's post ? Clearly he thinks he's going to get his job back. He obviously doesn't realise that even if an Employment Tribunal decides that he was unfairly sacked, there is no onus on BA to rehire him. The company juts cough up a few bob in compensation and leave it at that. BASSA really, really need to sharpen up their act on the legal ins and outs. I predict that none of those staff who have been sacked are going to return to jobs in BA, regardless of any ET results. No amount of TU negotiation is likely to persuade BA to reverse any decision taken as part of a disciplinary as it undermines the credibility of the whole process.
