.. that's all very well, but BASSA made a great play of using your vote to 'send a message to BA' and 'force them back to the negotiating table'. To my knowledge they did not say 'only vote yes if you are 100% prepared to go on strike' as any responsible union should.

Added to that the debate amongst CC themselves has now opened up, and - shock horror - some are actually feeling able to discuss BASSA's actions without fear of total retribution! This is shedding a whole new light on the argument for many, AFTER the ballot was in.

IMHO Any crewmember should go with their decision based on the facts known TODAY, and not the rhetoric of BASSA of 6 weeks ago.
