It is irrelevant what the public think once the threat of industrial action puts them off booking flights. We don't have to win any
PR war, only an economic one. Only when the cost of not dealing with our dispute is greater than the cost of dealing with it will we see any movement from the management. In other words we need to ballot for industrial action.
speedrestriction,
have you ever been on strike ? What the public think and what Acas think are both very important. The CC member I spoke to recently also took the time to labor these points. It is very much a
PR war !
I'm prepared for industrial action but we all need to understand the implications and be ready for them.
