WILL BA RESPECT THE DECISION?
The right to vote
The fate of our entire nation and every person in it will be decided in an election, next Thursday. This will be done by each person, registering to vote and having a valid polling day card and then having to make the effort to physically go to a polling station and cast a vote; there is only a narrow window of time on one specific day to do this, miss it and you won't be able to vote.
No threats or intimidation of voters is allowed under law and nobody can be victimised for their beliefs. According to this "democratic" process, the voters will judge the entire Government and leadership of this country and they will either carry on, or be replaced according to the result.
The fate of cabin crew will also be decided in a poll, next Thursday.
This will be done by each person going on line and then pressing a button to cast a vote. This can be done easily from any computer in the world, 24 hours a day, for a period of 7 days, starting from last evening.
Those who voted will have their votes counted. Threats and intimidation of voters will not only be allowed, but encouraged, and anybody with an opposing view to the leadership will be systematically victimised for their beliefs. This result will have no effect on our company's leadership, who will simply carry on and ignore it: because they are "right".
