What a total plonker, all of those who wheren't going to strike will probably go on strike now after that nonsense!
Reading the latest post on cabincrew.com, it looks like that opinion can go either way. Some who where previously going to strike now see this as a futile action in the face of the SRB publicity machine.
Thanks for honest response. I believe that had BB and management offered us 4.8% with no strings attached and a solid promise to resolve working conditions (Crew Down/IFE/Catering/Crew Rest) then there would be no strike.
Unfortunately Boyd "believed" he had already secured deals twice that he thought the membership would accept. It would seem the deal that you would have accepted may not be the deal everyone would have accepted; and the fatal flaw for Unite is they did not, and still have not, ascertained that. Now 4.8% and no strings just looks like a pipe dream.
