REUTERS - British Airways on Monday won a court injunction to stop cabin crew from going on strike.

BA had launched the challenge at London's High Court, arguing there had been an irregularity in the ballot of airline staff by the Unite Union.

Cabin crew were due to start a five-day walkout from 2300 GMT on Monday although last minute talks to resolve the dispute are still continuing.

BA wins court injunction

This is BA struggling to find any excuse to keep Walsh in a job. If he had done his job properly a long time ago this dispute would have been solved sooner. All along he has been confrontational even to the point of changing the goal posts just as his negotiators are about to reach agreement with the union. It is time he was sacked, without a mega-million euro golden handshake or pension.
