A few of my colleagues were eagerly discussing the ballot the other day, all (said they) had voted YES as soon as they got the ballot paper. If it were me, I like to think I may have held-off for a while, pending any major developments before the ballot closes. Still, the main points of conversation seemed to be what would be going-on at Bedfont, what to wear, and the fact that most drinking would have to be done inside if it turns-out cold. A fine grasp of the important issues there then!
In the meantime, quite a few of us already have been, and more will be, trained-up to act as SCCMs during the strike, further showing that a near-to-full operation should be quite easy to mount.
