NewYorker01 - you are absolutely right, most cabin crew are unable to state WHY they are going on strike.
The question I always ask is what do you hope to achieve by going on strike? Again, no-one I have asked is able to give a logical or reasonable response. So far, the best that people (including MissM) can come up with is "a yes vote will mean they will start to negotiate".
Therefore I would like to ask Lurker, MissM, WatersideWonker, et al to please tell us. What exactly will you achieve by striking and what in your opinion will be the end result?
I am a BA cabin crew member, and this is my own view and not that of BA.
