Less than 1000 turn out for union meeting

Sky news reporter at Kempton Park has just confirmed that there is less than 1000 turn out at todays meeting.

Would MissM, asperge, Dave3 et al like to tell us what the point of further IA would be? I fail to see what benefit it would bring, we now have a much larger VCC workforce than in previous strike periods combined with an apathetic community of strikers which is proven by recent ballots and the turn out today at Kempton.

BA will operate a close to normal operation if further IA takes place. There is little point in striking if you are going to have little or no impact whilst at BA it's business as usual. Would this not just be humiliating for the union and it's members? There will be little impact on forward bookings as customers have seen how well BA coped last time.

I think most people would be interested to hear your views on how you see further IA benefiting yourselves or your union?
