Likewise. I consider the vast majority of crew have been badly misled by BASSA and will find this out to their cost fairly shortly.
I disagree somewhat with that. Given the apparent numbers involved in the ballot returns, this isn't just BASSA's fault. There must be a significant number of voters that are just plain ignorant of what voting 'Yes' for strike action means.

Where exactly did BASSA say that the ballot was just to pressurise the company, and not to follow through? No, they weren't misled by BASSA, they were wilfully ingnorant of what a strike call actually means! That doesn't apply to all of the cabin crew, but it does to a significant number. Now they will pay the price. They chose to.
