The PCCC needs 40% of crew to join to be able to secure negotiating rights. 300 won't do it and neither will 3,000. I'm afraid they have a long way to go yet. Their main problem is that most crew identify them with BA. For some that is not an issue but for moderates who still think they need a union rather than a bunch of sycophants it is a poisonous image.
The PCCC also promises it is open to everyone. I already know of two cabin crew members who told me that they simply had their membership terminated without any reason being given but their view was that their forum postings asked some uncomfortable truths. That makes it 298.
