the Company provided Unite with a list of Leiden Cases.
duh! - wasn't that list was given to the trade union when the last deal was agreed? (before the union then broke their promise to ballot the membership)

As I recall, and its in the public domain, BA produced a list of employees who had been sacked during this dispute, which would have gone to ACAS arbitration - had the union members had a say of course. The union themselves wanted such a list produced, the fact it has got a name seemingly attached to it, how is that relevant?

There is a card outside each room in Waterside on which the purpose or titles of meetings are noted ie: this room is in use for.....In every dispute related case it was noted that the room is in use for "Backing BA". Backing BA refers to supporting the Company in its dispute with Unite.

Immediately then, if a case was related in some way to the dispute, crew were being treated differently from how they would have been treated were the case unrelated to the dispute.
oh my gosh! the employers door, leading into the employers room, where the employer will be, has, may or will be used for the benefit of the employer in the future! not fair!!! does the union want a designated grey room with pictures of Lennin on it, with chimes of the Soviet national anthem piped gently in the background for it to be deemed a fair room!?

what total drivel!
