A union backed strike would see the position of several figures at the top of our empire fall under close scrutiny I would warrant, and the very idea of us acting as a group will be causing them serious pause for thought. It is the real and proper threat of industrial action that will help us win this battle.

I think gaining a yes vote for IA would put massive pressure on the management as they would see bookings plummet just from this.

I would deem it a very unwise move to actually carry out a large scale strike though;

A. you would have zero public support
B. The company is not a monopoly, therefore carriers like FR would be quick to grab customers that EZY would never gain back.

Good luck to you lot though, well done for standing up for yourselves and i hope this germany strike has set the ball rolling for an agreement to be reached before things turn Industrial
