No 15 and others:
You seem to miss the vital point that this dispute is nothing short of a monumental power struggle as to who runs the company, BA's management or BASSA's leaders. As such, BA management (or WW as most CC prefer to personalise) simply cannot do anything to just settle this now (including giving back staff travel) without first having a BASSA leadership regime change by derecognising the current BASSA leadership in favour of the PCCC or any other reasonable union leadership team.
Phil, I think you have shown by this paragraph alone that you have no great knowledge of the why's the wherefore's or the outcome. Bye, bye.
