All true, BBB.
But the gist of my concern was that by hitting Unite financially for damages, no matter how valid, BA hits the pockets and the union of thousands of its employees who have supported BA as volunteers during IA and also by coming to new agreements that saved BA money.
BA might be seen punishing its other Unite employees and for that matter all Unite employees from all companies as well as BA, for the actions of a few at BA--the subgroup BASSA. And they need to keep their other employees onside at present as they may go into another disruption.
That's all.
Though a nicely worded letter from BA's lawyers saying they will take "reasonable" actions in court if necessary to recover damages might be enough to do it, without actually going to court and costing innocent Unite members their hard earned dues contributions.
By the way, I loved the way Mr. Walsh straight talked calling BASSA "dysfunctional." Like they are the awful relative at the holiday dinner table.
