I agree, The PCCC would do well to go public this week, if not BASSA will put the new proposal to the vote and just like last time most crew won't even vote as they are either fed up or won't want to betray the union.
If they had a public alternative they could confidently vote to accept the proposal and then "run" to you guys for support and protection.
They would at least have a public place to feel safe and away from the intimidation of BASSA.
This will be even more important should BASSA decide to go straight for a strike ballot, probably once again getting a majority yes vote from a minority of members.
This will go round and round in circles until crew actually find the strength to leave BASSA, they never will however, unless they have a viable alternative.
Time to step up to the plate. What's the worst that can happen?
You already wear backing BA lanyards and you can safely park your cars in a CCTV coverage area.
BASSA reps might be militant but they are not completely stupid.
