you really don't have much of an idea.the delays are down to making sure that everything is done right.
having been in the situation before of having a strike called off because of irregularities, from what I gather BASSA and Unite were trying to consider all the possibilities before going out with a ballot..and that takes time.
We don't want to end up in a situation like last Christmas or the Pilots one that was stopped because of wrong doings from the union.
To think it s down to anything else is just wishful thinking..
Not really, Duncan wants to lead you all out on another fruitless strike, UNITE know this, so they wont allow BASSA to Ballot. BASSA have been
excluded from talks, and don't know what the "new deal"is
we are unable to report to you the details of these changes,as we have not, as yet seen them
strange don't you think? BASSA "experts" not been consulted?
UNITE know that BASSA are spent, and will do everything in their sphere of influence to prevent further action, this may not be possible but UNITE will do their best! You cannot deny that UNITE deliberately delayed strike action over the General Election, neither can you deny that amongst the BASSA leadership there were calls for another ballot immediately following the end of the last strike period, that never happened, ask yourself why, and its not
the delays are down to making sure that everything is done right.
Lets wait and see what the deal is that is put on the table, my bet is it won't be palatable to you or MissM, but once put to a consultative will push any chance of industrial action beyond this Xmas
