Comedy moment - I believe BASSA are saying that those who've accepted Bills offer have been 'conned'. Why so? Because the pay rises they've been promised are less than those achieved by the engineers. Wrong on two counts BASSA: 1) BASSA think they will achieve at least as good a rise as the engineers because that's what they're demanding from BA. Like that's gonna work? 2) BASSA seem to have overlooked the fact that those who have already accepted Bills offer are guaranteed to have their offer uplifted in the highly unlikely event that BASSA achieve anything better. I think those who've accepted Bills offer are in a rather comfortable win-win situation and the only people being conned are the BASSA members who think their leadership can achieve parity with the best pay rises in the BA.
