The problem here for BASSA though, is that, during the course of the last year the disciplinaries have been one of the conditions to end the current course of industrial action, and I have no doubt that BA have minuted meetings as such.

So how will BASSA now claim that this is a new reason to strike, when it has been pat of previous negotations is puzzling...

As far as whether BASSA would truthfully and fully articulate to its members the reasons for their sacking, for them to make up there minds is, I think fanciful.

One just has to think back to BASSA's spin on planes flying circuits at LHR to make it look busy, and fleets of planes secretly parked in other airports as just two examples of how BASSA have, with evidence, lied to their membership to beef up their side of the story.

litebulbs:
They may spin it, but lies will be explored in court.
If BASSA want to use this as a tool to get members re-sinstated through industrial Action, it will never get to court though, and BA would not release confidential employee information.. so not sure how BASSA's story would ever get visibility in the courts?
