Is this a record?

Ballot result for UK KLC pilots on Friday gave: papers despatched 132, papers returned 128, in favour of proposal for industrial action 128 i.e. 100% support (on returned papers)! Is this a record? More seriously it does show the feeling of unity on the issue at hand and should send an unambiguous signal to the powers that be in Amsterdam. Bear in mind that these are not a group of militant troublemakers just itching for any excuse for a fight but just ordinary people trying to secure their future employment prospects. It has come to this end after a calculated attrition of the workforce, first by cutting off the inflow of workers at the bottom and then cheesing off the remaining workforce so much they leave or even move to Australia!
