BASSA leadership has now publicly undercut any ability or chance of TW negotiating a settlement. Further talks are fruitless as BASSA leadership will approve the settlement not BASSA membership and we know what the leadership have said they will insist on. BASSA leadership has a problem though. Unite must call for the vote and Unite do not want a strike vote. BASSA leadership again overplays their hand. I would assume TW will soon be depicted with horns or a mustache.
