Unite Wins High Court Appeal Over BA Strikes
The Unite union has won an appeal against a High Court injunction that blocked a mass strike by British Airways cabin crew.
If Unite's appeal is accepted the union is expected to resume planned strikes
A wave of five-day walkouts was due to start this week, but on Monday the High Court ruled in favour of BA as the airline made a last-ditch legal attempt to stop the strikes.
Today two out of three judges in the Court of Appeal in London accepted the union's challenge over the High Court junction.
Their decision means the strikes can go ahead.
Unite said BA cabin crew would not walk out before Monday.
The union originally announced four five-day stoppages from May 18-22 inclusive, then from May 24-28, May 30-June 3 and June 5-9, the last strike ending just days before the start of the football World Cup in South Africa.
