Unite - Bassa BA Crew Vote For Strike

BA cabin crew have convincingly backed strike action against BA in the dispute over staffing cuts and proposed changes to working conditions.

Unite said that 80.7% of the 11,691 ballot papers issued were returned.

Of those 78.7% (7,482) supported taking action with 1,789 voting against it.

The strike dates have yet to be announced but an Easter strike has been ruled out.

Press sources say that a recent poll held by Bassa, Unite's cabin crew branch, has indicated strong support for a walkout lasting longer than 10 days.
