Unite comment on trial today of BA cabin crew strikebreaker

11 March 2010

Commenting on the court appearance of a BA employee alleged to be involved in a terror plot, and who had volunteered to work as cabin crew in the event of any strike, Len McCluskey, assistant general secretary said: "Today's charges illustrate absolutely the serious dangers of recruiting a strike-breaking crew to defeat a workforce. BA's responsibility to all passengers is to put every effort into securing a negotiated settlement, not risk safety with fast-tracked strikebreakers

"This only serves to underline the concerns we've raised with BA regarding health, safety and security issues throughtout this dispute."
