I can't help but think that, if I were Willie Walsh, I wouldn't waste my time or money on challenging these new strikes through the courts. I'd let the strikes go ahead and I'd let the ranks of VCCs - alongside the majority of full-time crew who have decided to back the company - keep the airline flying.

Then, when the strikes are done, I'd spend the money I would have spent on blocking the strikes on getting rid of the most militant members of the Bassa camp. They'd participated in unlawful strike action, afterall.

There are few people I'd wish unemployment on, but I cannot forgive those responsible for my hate-mail, my menacing SMS and phone messages and the vicious PMs on Facebook. To those people, unemployment is a mild punishment considering what I'd love to see meted out.
