I think you should read this JdS to realise there have been some very substantive discussions posted in the past week:

http://www.pprune.org/passengers-slf...ons-iv-29.html

It is clear that BASSA has snatched defeat from the jaws of victory during the course of this dispute due to its administrative incompetence, refusal to engage in negotiation, and elitist senior longhaul CSD-centric agenda.

BASSA now faces censure from the Certification Officer, a possible High Court challenge for maladministration (the costs of which would be borne by BASSA's officers), and Unite itself could be liable for the full costs incurred by BA as a consequence of this strike.

Any future withdrawal of labour will not have any significant effect on passengers, and BASSA is not having a significant effect on forward bookings.

As an aside, it appears Holley's Employment Tribunal hearing judgement will be released tomorrow (Monday). Whatever the outcome, he will never work for BA again.
