Because the 'no BA pilot disadvantaged' position enabled BA to secure £10m in savings from the pilots. That and the fact it doesn't want to anger 3,300 employees.
Jeez, trying to extract facts here is like trying to pull teeth!

-Read the post! the thrust of that statement assumed an agreement between the CCs. I'm not approaching this from an emotive stance, I merely would like to form a picture of the two scenarios likely to be offered. Whichever option is chosen needs to be done with a full spread of the facts, which are sadly lacking. Is it any surprise that emotions will start to run high in an information vacuum? (oh, and another question - will it be an individual or the whole pilot group that chooses, or votes for whichever option?)
