a substantial reason could quite simply be to end the dispute.
I take your point, I hadn't thought of that.
I am still of the opinion that BA won't go that route, for the other reasons I said.
It was a hypothetical situation anyway, and if, hypothetically, BA could just offer the terms signed up to by the non union CC, to specific current contract groups within BA, ie LHR WW and EF, then I would consider they might go that route.......hypothetically
I still think the Union is using the fear of enforced MF contracts within CC to bolster their own power over CC, whilst no more expecting it to happen than I am.
