I suspect that the bullying arrogance of BA management may have assisted the vote being so overwhelmingly in favour of strike action.

I'm sick and tired of the typical kneejerk reaction of some people on this forum who immediately denounce any industrial action and automatically blame those who have most to lose.

A little bit of homework into the record and the background of BA management might enlighten you.
