The sad fact is that BASSA demand open ended guarantees from BA that they are insulated from all circumstances and changes in the future as a pre-requisite to the dispute being settled.
That in my considered opinion, shows how ridiculous the demands are, and how the only way for the dispute to be settled, is for them to lose their jobs.
Really?
One in four nurses would strike as job fears increase
3,000 council staff poised to strike against cuts
Academics go on strike
More Tube train strikes
Private jail go ahead sparks strike threat
etc. etc. It would seem that many working people are prepared to strike to protect their jobs and working conditions.
We may or may not agree with them, but, that does not alter the fact that they believe they should.
