are crew really going to vote for the proposal (and settle the dispute) on an online vote ?
We all know computers monitor our every move and BASSA/Unite will be able to easily identify how everyone votes .... it looks like an easy way to rig a result to me

But to what end? If the vote was rigged to give a yes vote , all that counts is the number who actually withdraw their labour, not the number of yes votes. It is long past the stage where a ballot result might be considered a bargaining chip. If the vote was rigged to a no vote, those that are running the BASSA campaign (and, I presume, the people who have been affected by the ST ban and/or disciplinaries) would be shooting themselves in the foot.
I think that an online ballot would be taken as valid by all parties in this situation.
