Last attempts to avert BA strikes – BBC News

23 May, 2010 by Einar Thorsen Leave a Comment

    "However, a further row has erupted between the union and BA, which has accused Unite joint leader Derek Simpson of providing a "running commentary" of the "delicate negotiations" on Twitter.

    The Twitter entries under the name derekamicus, on a page with photograph of Mr Simpson, included, "Arguments over the 8 sacked workers," and then, "Fear of more sackings to come."

    Unite insisted "references to Tweeting are peripheral to the real concerns to passengers" and that it was "ready to resume talks with BA at any time"."
