Goodman says BA chiefs ordered 'dirty tricks'

HARRY GOODMAN, the flamboyant former chairman of Air Europe, came out of the wilderness yesterday with accusations that a dirty tricks campaign against his business was authorised by British Airways 'at the highest level'.

Mr Goodman, whose business empire collapsed in 1991 and whose personal debts are pounds 7m, has got legal aid to pursue an action against BA, which last year was accused of dirty tricks by Virgin Atlantic's Richard Branson.
