Is there any way of finding out what is the true (audited) membership figure for BASSA?
We hear that 12500+ were sent ballot papers – BASSA’s site state they have 9750+ members, one presumes the other 2750 were AMICUS members.

Duggie Fashion on the other thread “This was merely a consultative ballot and the reason for the low return was probably due to many people not receiving or returning their ballot papers in time.
I live in Germany and only received my ballot 5 days ago
.”

Surely the idea of any ballot is that all members can participate!
3419 voted no to reject the offer
1686 voted to accept
12600 cabin crew in total – 7459 did not vote.

I find it very strange that in a dispute such as this so many people would abstain from voting – your jobs are on the line – I cannot believe you would not cast your vote.
How many cabin crew do not belong to the union – add that to the total who voted to accept.
