I know that we are agreeing to agree - and I agree with you - the practicalities of physically dealing with a number of sacked staff is one that might have to be addressed in bulk, maybe BA could hire the Bedfont FC unit, for say XX weeks after/if the action commences.
Essentially, security is the major potential problem that would need to be sorted out.
Just an Observer - I also agree with you, that in practical terms BA may well choose that avenue, based upon custom & practice?. Thank you for the 'moot', tis a lovely word that I have not heard for years, although I guess that that sentiment has been mooted before!
Cheers
