Meanwhile BASSA supporter in Chief Ava Hannah point out that most CC's don't understand the "real" issues at stake

Q to Ava:
If this offer is as acceptable to the majority as it is to you, why would they jeopardise their ST to protect yours?
Answer from Ava:
Because they are thinking shortsightedly. Unfortunately some in this airline don't understand what is at stake.
Q. to Ava:
It is possible the writing is on the wall, and perhaps your best solution is simply to vote to accept??? What's the alternative?
A. from Ava:
Unless Staff Travel is reinstated without any sanctions, I can't
vote to accept this proposal.
So, to summarise her views, the rest of the CC don't know what this IA is about and should strike and lose ST. But if she was given back ST she would vote to accept the deal she feels the others should reject if they knew what it was really about.

I have to say that the double standards shown by BASSA are quite breathtaking. They expect the remaining staff to strike and lose their ST while at the same time saying they will accept the current offer if ST is returned to them. Incredible!

PS Excellent summary Swissref
