I entirely approve of BA putting out their side of the story during the strike.

There was so much misinformation put out by the cabin crew Union, BASSA (aircraft parked up at Shannon, anyone?) that a clearer perspective was needed.

BASSA is now a shadow of its former self, structurally doomed to a falling membership, and only able to influence things from the sidelines - by leaking information such as this against a specific group of fellow employees against which it still holds a grudge, despite many of its members (including the former Branch Secretary) having recently narrowly escaped criminal prosecution when Unite settled on their behalf a case in which the most unattractive aspects of Union tactics were evidenced.

As a paid up member of BASSA, you may disagree as is your right.
