Unite urges BA to let talks begin

16.03.10

A Unite spokesperson said this morning: “Unite is ready to meet BA. But the company needs to put its offer of last week back on the table. If BA thinks that strikes are going to be avoided with a worse offer, the company is conning the travelling public.

"The company is still trying to bully and bludgeon its way through this. We need a serious approach to addressing cabin crew’s concerns.

“Our representatives on the ground are confident the strike will have overwhelming support among cabin crew, despite the company’s bullying and harassment, which risks poisoning the atmosphere on BA flights for years to come.”
