I suppose just to re-affirm some things

1 The strike did indeed last for 3 days
2 The first 200 crew who went on strike where in fact not dismissed
3 The strike did not collapse after 2 hours
4 The company has not 'locked out' any strikers
5 All crew are to work to their planned rosters following the strike
6 No crew have to sign a 'no strike' pledge
7 Staff travel has not yet been taken away from strikers
Well possibly, but 4-7 won't be fully known until they turn up for work in a few hours time.

In the meantime, What has been achieved through the strike? Let's reaffirm shall we:

1. Widespread public condemnation
2. Cabin crew bringing shame on our community with WW faces etc.
3. Loss of revenue
4. BA still not negotiating
5. Strikers losing pay and staff travel (it will happen)
6. A now divided workforce - strikers and non-strikers
7. Unite still no further forward than they were a week/month/year ago.

Unless you can think of anything else it has achieved BAcabincrew?
