Whether next strike will be legal or not doesn't matter. I will personally go on strike should a strike be called. Let them sack us.

BA management are not treating us with respect.

Let the rest of the strike breaking crew and VCC work. There are thousands of us who are not happy with what BA are doing to us. It's a shame that the strike breaking crew are not seeing that BA are wanting to get rid of us.
I'm not taking sides here but I don't think BA would sack you; it would open a can of worms.

Their strategy is to continue growing Mixed Fleet and the number of VCCs so that they get to a point where all flights are covered.

You could then call and walk out on strike as many times as you wanted - and it wouldn't make any difference at all.

You need to understand this is a likely strategy going forward.

If I was a union member I would probably think of a different way of resolving my concerns, as it would be obvious to me that strikes not supported by a majority of crew just would not work.
