I think that the BA Cabin Crew are misguided here in voting for strike action.
Were they misled by the union? There was one CC interviewed on Breakfast TV today who said the only question on the ballot paper was "were they in favour of strike action" no mention of the timing of the strike nor the duration. I was served by one BA CC in my local hostelry today who confirmed the situation but felt under pressure to do what the union said.
I hope somewhere they see sense and realise that another nail in the coffin is not what is needed at the moment. How long before we see BA(2010) plc? New contracts new Ts & Cs? Just glad our Xmas arrangements don't involve travel this year.
