We had a manager come round with a piece of paper this morn, he read it out & apparently the vote was yes 51% & no 49% i think he was embarrased to read it out to be honest but i'm sure he'd been told he had to.
They could have at least made it sound a bit more realistic like 55/45 they are fools & i really think they credit us with no brains at all!!

Re: strike ballot result
Read something on our propoganda board this morning that suggested that the support for industrial action was 60/40 against.
They have taken the figures, given them a good shake than added the people who didn't vote to the no column.
That smacks of depperation.

Re: strike ballot result
Your manager was messing with figures saying out of 120,000 only 61,000 voted - yes - hence his 49% did not say Yes to strikes.postdoom wrote:We had a manager come round with a piece of paper this morn, he read it out & apparently the vote was yes 51% & no 49% i think he was embarrased to read it out to be honest but i'm sure he'd been told he had to.
Using his logic we could use it to say only 15% said No - to strikes
or 85% of members did not say "No"
