Since DH and others have been kicked out of BA, would it not be possible for TW/whoever at UNITE to FORCE Bassa to hold an immediate (as in, as soon as is feasibly possible) election for these posts as these people are,
afaik, now not eligible to be in these posts.
Somewhere along the line I believe that Unite/BASSA agreed that elections to replace DH should be deferred until the current dispute was resolved. Given that only BASSA (DH and other reps) can agree to a dispute being ended then in practice it appears that DH is "sitting pretty" unless outvoted by the other BASSA reps. If I'm correct then you can see that DH may have what is called a conflict of interest with respect to this dispute.
