It is my understanding that you have to have a reason and the reason has to be substantial. I doubt if you could just state that we believe we have a substantial reason.
What is the new contract doing? Is the reason guaranteeing a pay rise? Is is guaranteeing the protection of allowances?
It would seem that BA want its existing employees on a new contract. To get them to that will require them to be dismissed from their existing contract, not dismissing them from the business.
