we've given them a yes vote to strike. if they do sell us out without any sort of fight it''ll be the end of this union within 6 month's. i don't really think they've got the bottle for this dispute. they're more worried about lossing all that money they take from us every week.

I think they will call off the strike and that will be the end of any help we can expec from union in the future.
I am hoping against hope that the union have the b***s to stick to our vote and have a strike

And who recommended that CWU members vote yes? Most members will vote as advised by the CWU, they're the ones the members pay to sort stuff like that out.
