That's not a risk of striking -it could be a very quick reality for some. How on earth does that benefit the members of BASSA, Unite, or any other UK union in air transport ?
The definition of a risk is an event that may take place in the future, with an impact.
I respectfully suggest that your logic is a little out.
If one votes for a strike, then one risks the consequences.
The members need to take considered decisions and accept the responsibility of their decisions.
