Paddles issued. Sale done and dusted. Balpa have wasted 8 months of negotiation and a 97% vote for industrial action. The deal is the same as the one 'offered' on day 1, yet the threat of strikes has been withdrawn. I would guess Balpa's future in Virgin is on a knife edge now.

Balpa are presenting this as some kind of success on their website. I'd love to know what it would take for them to declare a failure!
