On basis that only 40 AMICUS members claimed strike pay, versus 7000 BASSA members, our democratic right to an opinion and our ability to represent you is extinguished.
so, only 40 Amicus members claimed strike pay...
Question, How many BA cabin crew are in this branch of the Union, and how many Amicus reps are there?
Seems to me, that if only 40 members went on strike, then the hard line Amicus is taking is unlikely to be representaitve?
If you don't want us to maintain the position we have taken, or indeed if you wish us to adopt another approach please communicate with us via our website.
which is hardly a fair way to guage support of its members?
They want members to expose their views on this matter publicly on the Amicus website - I doubt many would dare do this. And if not many do, then Amicus will carry on, thinking it has the support of its membership? absurd!
Only way to fairly guage opinion is a secret ballot of its members.
