Swissport LHR dispute

There seem to be a lot of rumours flying around at Swissport today regarding possible strike action over pay and overtime. Has any one got any details. Are more of their contracts going to get handed out to Aviance etc?

It looks like there are severe problems. Apparently staff have been told that cutbacks have to be made - or the UK operation will be shut down, and soon. Seems that Swissport at Heathrow cannot make profits and the outlook for the future is very bleak. Good luck to all those effected.
