Miss M:

I have to agree with Yellow Pen, even if all 8-9000 members that are left in BASSA (and thats probably a generous estimation) vote for further IA. At least half that amount will come into work just like last time. They are solely responsible for this prolonged dispute as had they put the 'x' in the correct box in the first place none of the last years events need have happened. This section of your membership have cost you your staff travel, your wages, your union and now will undoubtedly vote the same way and sit and watch as their 'brother and sisters' take whatever consequences BA inflict for further IA.

With regard to your 'majority' comment. Considering how bitter and angry most of the strikers are (with the exception of Dingbaticus and others like her/him) it was quite alarming that only 3419 bothered to vote in the last consultative ballot? Not that close to the 7,000 figure DH has fed the membership, but certainly more realistic to the 4963 figure published by the company...... this ballot will really give us a clearer picture of where we are? So as you say ...... Bring it on!!!!
