BASSA has put in a complaint about ‘officer interference’ in the executive elections, involving allegations of nominations via officer control without the proper branch meeting. The elections for the CAT [civil air transport] seats have not yet taken place so the exec will be 3 members short when they meet and vote for chair. The newly elected executive members are until awful pressure to support the Sharon slate with her henchman phoning them daily telling them what they must do. The contest for Chair of the Unite EC is between Graham supporter Kerry Owens and United Left-backed Docks rep Andy Green.
