Damn! I forgot to mention that JaO, you're right.
He did say exactly that, but I was still pondering his admission that the IA had achieved
nothing. Quite extraordinary.
Furthermore, I was just thinking about how all the other Unions and departments at BA must feel about this situation? It is a massive arrogance on BASSAs behalf. They seem to think the Baggage Handlers, the Tug Drivers, the Engineers and all the other tens of thousands of staff - who did all their negotiating before last June and have been doing their part ever since - are simply going to sit back and watch while BA rolls over, winds back the clock fifteen months and says; 'Okay, what do you want?'
Not only an arrogance, but an unthinking, uncaring and unforgivable insult.
Roger.
