There could still be a final twist to this dispute.
If we say there are 9500 BASSA crew, say 5 to 6000 went on strike, however a large number of that 5-6000 may accept the latest offer + the 3500 to 4500 that didn't strike. So on that basis the dispute will be over.
The twist? Well those 3500-4500 BASSA crew that went in have been so p
d off with antics of the strikers that they will vote for a strike (but still go into work if a strike is called). Now on this basis WW will have no option but to place the "strikers" on 90 day notice. A result, the p
d off CC get rid of the thorn in their sides, WW gets rid of the troublemakers. Everyone then gets on with their job in a happier atmosphere.
Fantasy land? May be but if this were a novel it would be a twist in the story that nobody expected!
NOTE: This is pure speculation, but in view of the different camps being poles apart it is something cannot be dismissed out of hand.
