Yes Paddy. Many crew still believe that the Yes vote will carry some influence in resolving the dispute in favour of the cabin crew. They intend to either come to work or to go sick. I have spoken to many crew and few have stated a firm resolve to actually withdraw their labour. I'd say 1500-2000 will actually strike.
These who have made a tactical Yes vote haven't considered that BA have a massive plan in place to break the strike, which would leave Bassa in tatters. By voting Yes and not intending to strike they are guiding their union to its demise.
