What has UNITE said, if anything to those UNITE members from other BA divisions that have volunteered to man (or woman) the aircraft.

The thing that I always find strange, is the people who don't vote! I sympathise with all the crew community for the choices they have had to make on this issue and I am glad that I am not in that position.

With regard to Unite members in other departments volunteering to help BA, it is one of the major downfalls of a union the size of Unite. As you can imagine, many non flying staff have a view on their collegues in dispute and how that will affect their future employment.
