BAE Systems (Operations) Ltd v Unite the Union [2025] EWHC 3106 (KB) (25 November 2025)
The High Court dismissed BAE’s application for an interim injunction against Unite, finding Unite was likely to succeed in showing no prior call or inducement of breach.
The High Court refused BAE Systems’ application for an interim injunction against Unite, holding there was no likely unlawful prior call before the ballot.
The ongoing industrial action by Unite the Union is most likely to be found at trial to be in furtherance of the trade dispute identified in the ballot, namely the 2023/24 pay deal and related terms, and thus protected by statutory immunity under section 219(1) TULR(C)A 1992. The fact that negotiations focused on localised or creative solutions does not alter the essential character of the dispute. The balance of convenience does not justify the grant of an injunction in this case.
