Thanks for those answers.
WW didn't really wake up one day and say tomorrow I will have 14 crew on a 747.He did discuss it with Bassa.
He did say that if an agreement wasn't reached then the crewing levels would be imposed.But this was after months of talks and warning.

Wouldn't it have been better for the offer of last week to have been put to the members then?That way everyone could have voted.
That would have saved a strike.Now striking crew have lost pay and staff travel.For what? To get to vote on the same offer.
WW said that as soon as strike dates were announced the offer would go.

I still really don't see why now Unite would want their members to vote when last week they didn't think the deal was worth it.
