At work today my manager told me that Bassa had taken advise from Queens Counsel because Willie Walsh had sent them a letter questioning the linking in the ballot with issues in the previous strike. All our managers were told that the strike is unlikely to go ahead but that if Bassa re-ballot the earliest strike would be April.
What amazes me, the most, is that after making such a mess of the ballot in the past, that Bassa or Unite did not check out Queens Counsel advise before sending out the ballots!!
If I were a Bassa member I would be furious.
