Trade press are reporting :
Of about 9,700 crew polled, 83% of the 6,981 who returned valid voting papers voted for strike action.
5,811 crew voted for strike action, and 1,170 voted against. Turnout was 72% and only four voting papers returned were invalid.
or compared to the 14000 BA crew....
41.5% of total work force voted yes..
Of course only approx 9700 are UNITE members so thats less than 60% of memebers entitled to voted actually voted yes and 28 percent of those entitled to vote (Bassa & CC89) werent that bothered to even return a ballot paper.
The numbers dont tell of a workforce wholy committed to strike action.
