I think you will find that the memo is word for word the same as the press release. The DoO is only the messanger whilst those above pass down missives.
I read the memo slightly differently to others. My interpretation is thus-

bmibaby has today been advised by BALPA (British Airline Pilots’ Association) that 91 of bmibaby’s 100 captains have voted in favour of strike action. This represents 91% of the total bmibaby captains.
Given that less than 92% of bmibaby’s captains voted for a strike we welcome BALPA’s decision to delay one. BALPA have requested a meeting with us to attempt to find a way through the dispute but we are still hiding up at the hall waiting for something to happen.
