Liam, I agree with you, but as someone else pointed out, we have an association with lots of members, but with very few union men. That's the sad truth!
The AoA are aware of this, and to mention the word strike in a motion this early is going to have all the scaredy cats running to the nearest trash bin. Give it time, let the momentum build. Ultimately I'm sure the motion will revised to what you're rightfully suggesting.
