British Airways cabin crew strike to go ahead
A strike by British Airways cabin crew will go ahead after talks between the airline and the Unite union collapsed. A three-day strike begins on Saturday, with a four-day strike scheduled to commence on March 27. BA’s CEO Willie Walsh said the strike was �deeply regrettable� while Unite’s joint general secretary Tony Woodley claimed that BA �ultimately wants to go to war with this union�. Laura Lynch reports from London.
