They are floundering around in the wilderness. BA will be fairly relaxed about the present situation. My forthcoming flights in J are all looking well filled, so the pax aren't worried either.
indeed ... I'm more worried about the 10yo kid who lives down the lane, and more inconvenienced by the local cat that 'sings' outside our bedroom window in the small hours of the morning.

DH/BASSA are welcome to bluster all they wish. They can spend members' Union subscriptions on the highest lawyers in the land. They can parade around Bedfont, and catterwaul along the Bath Road, for ever. The rest of the SLF are just flying, and booking, BA ... and, please Duncan, don't tell us how many people have switched to other airlines. They have not: they may have other reasons for not flying [have you heard of the global recession?] but it's not YOU.

The problem is that DH/they have no grasp of reality. And trying to re-start a strike on basically the same grounds as the last one is simply puerile. However, with luck the expensive Queen's Counsel/Council will tell DH it's a non-starter ... after about 3 hours of meetings, several days of deliberation and a few ££,£££ in fees.
