BBC reckon 80% turnout and 90% in favour
And yet, and I have read all entries on this thread since the announcement of the result, not ONE contribution defending the action. It just doesn't stack up: attack UNITE / BASSA all you like but SOMEBODY - in fact quite a lot of SOMEBODIES - voted their way and yet no-one seems to have the courage to defend their ridiculous and self-destructive action!
Millions of people in this country have accepted reduced Ts&Cs recently in the face of one of the the worst recessions in history in order to keep their jobs and help their employers survive but UNITE / BASSA seem to think that they, and they alone, should remain aloof and untouched by it. Words fail . . . .
