'Bully' claims fuel BA-Unite dispute

Problems between UK carrier and the Unite union have re-ignited over allegations of bullying.

The unresolved dispute concerns allegations made by the union and BA staff during the previous 22 day strike.

More than 80 BA staff were suspended and 13 sacked because of incidents related to the strike.

BA said that most suspensions related to "allegations from other employees of bullying and intimidation" and that it could not ignore them.

Christmas period strike impacts now are possible.
