There have been many comments around how a YES vote would send a message to BA.

I know you know this, but some don't seem to realise....

A sizeable yes vote will INEVITABLY result in ACTUAL industrial action!

BA has it's back to the wall. It simply does not have the option of accepting "a message"!! The stakes are very, very high for BA this time. Without delivery of savings, they will not survive! They must take this unrest to it's final conclusion, because they know (as we all do) that this fracas alone, will not finish BA. Though other 'clear and present' dangers will.

Please, please, only vote yes if you personally are prepared to be the FIRST to be sacked over the proposals at the centre of this dispute!!!

Nothing could damage BASSA more than a yes vote, followed by a collapse in resolve on day one of IA.

Sure as eggs are eggs, the gobby ones here, and on CF are NOT going to be the first 'over the top' !! They'll be leaving that to the canon fodder.

Is that you?
