Okay maths time again,

So last time of the 81% who voted, only 79% were in favour of strike action which makes the total percentage those crew in the union who voted in favour of a strike to be 64%.

This time it was 71% who bothered to vote, and of those only 81% were in favour of strike action which makes the total percentage those crew in the union who voted no to the offer/in favour of a strike to be just 57.51% I believe (unless my maths is totally wrong).

The turnout was smaller this time, down 10% but the percentage of yes votes was up 3%. So the percentage of total union crew who voted to turn down the offer/yes to strike is down 6.49% from the last ballot.
