(WHAT A Even this was not enough for this rapacious employer, and the 47 were dismissed-on trumped up charges of misconduct, in some cases-while the negotiations were continuing.

The members on strike have received a letter from the company threatening them with the sack if they don't return by 28 August.
Air India flights into and out of Heathrow have been halted since 17 August.
•The JSSC has agreed to black all Air India cargo at Heathrow and telexes of support have come in from Air India workers in other countries.

Messages of support and donations should be sent to 12 Middlesex or to TGWU offices.
