Given the huge disparity of pay between the new and old contracts, this group of staff were always going to one day get organised and cause BA a problem. This is a dispute entirley created by greedy BA management, and I would argue it will be all of BA that suffers from the negative impact and not only the CC, who sadly, actually have very little to lose.
Well if they have so little to lose, why did they join in the first place, surely they are not that stupid!
