Yes, I totally agree - the resolve to strike is extremely weak. After the last vote, everyone I flew with said they were coming into work, even though they had voted Yes. I'm not sure if I respect them even less than I do the hardcore militants.

Either way the damage will be done, by deterring customers, and losing us money. And then, BA may well HAVE to change our contracts.

What we have at the moment is very palatable. One crew member off an aircraft. Everyone is doing it, and their is no hardship whatsoever. The hardship will come when our Pay and contracts HAVE TO BE changed due to all this loss of business. The crew community are not going to know what hit them.

The rest of us can but hold our head in our hands and weep.
