Whether the proposals are accepted or rejected will have no real long term effect on whatever plans WW has for BA /bmi, the end result will still be the same, he will get his low cost operation for short haul, it may take a bit longer to happen if there is a no vote, but happen it will !. All this current "offer" is meant to do is to keep the troops quiet whist bmi is swallowed up, and when that is all done and dusted the low cost issue will reappear.
Make no mistake, this is a smokescreen designed to hide the ambush hiding down the road, it may well be better to put up a fight now than try and defend your position later when you will be holding a much weaker hand to play.
