So What happens now

Someone was asking what will happen now. WW has always had a plan, we can be sure of that. From reading much posted by "strikers" they are clearly unhappy at the original offer further compounded by their loss of ST. The atmosphere on the aircarft without the BASSA stalworts (sp) is an incredible atmosphere of teamspirit. Clearly the strikers would not be happy to return to work unless they get what they want. Walsh will not give it to them so what next? Well IMHO Walsh will give notice to vary their contract to the New Fleet terms and conditions. The strikers will end up with no where to go and can look forward to suing for wrongful dismissal. The Bassa members would not trust WW to do what he said, even what he offered. Instead they placed their trust in their Union. A big mistake. Now they have nowhere to go. Well you rap what you sew. I remember what Balpa's Mark Young used to say: "Don't enter a fight you cannot win"!
