As discussed before by several of us, this entire matter is a very bad and sad indictment for the dreadful state of the Trade Union movement in the UK today.
A picture of WW with red eyes on Unite BA CC's front webpage pretty much sums it all up for me - high school children, if that!
I'm sure that BA, while wanting to negotiate collectively with a representative union rather than CC individually, would much prefer dealing with a professional entity run at a similar level to that at which it handles its own PLC affairs.
The CC members should demand nothing less themselves in exchange for their monthly subs.
Perhaps this is what PCCC are trying to offer if they could only pluck-up enough courage to face the BASSA bullying and unpleasantness head-on to get their message across to CC.
Beyond that CC will get the representation that they choose.....
