Plodding along,
You know perfectly well that I have signed the agreement.
I know that there are crew that also want to sign it now but we have all just become pawns in a much bigger union game and many will be disappointed that they can't vote.
There are unfortunately still many that want still to reject the offer and introducing these new crew into this situation in this very provocative manner just does not help anything.
I am not suggesting that Mixed Fleet did not need to go ahead in the light of Bassa's resistance to change but what I am saying it could have been done in a much nicer way for both current crew like me and for the poor new Mixed Fleet crew who do stick out like a saw thumb and it is unfair for them.
