Why won't UNITE/BASSA come out to play today?

So what happened today? On the Andrew Marr show, Mr Walsh was quite clear and optimistic that further talks would be held later in the day. So why then have United failed to "come out to play"? Could it be that Tony Woodley has finally lost his rag with BASSA and said, in effect, "let's see just how much support you have for this strike".

I guess there will be many cabin crew who were dreading this moment. Its make up your mind time and vote with your feet - support your employer and its customers by turning up for work, or support your Union by attending Bedfont FC's ground. At least the weather will be kind to the strikers tomorrow.

Good luck to all those brave enough to turn up for work and more power to your elbow to all those volunteering for flight duty. Happy landings.
