I think we should. I don't think we will.

The radio silence from the CWU over the last few days seems to indicate that both sides have agreed not to make too comment. That's usually a sign that things are ramping up in negotiation.

(However, I've been often wrong in the past. Does anyone know anything different?)

I hope we don't, the fact that there was a strong result is hopefully enough of a negotiation tool. But it's there as an option if needed, this result gives the CWU the upper hand.

Only if they think we will do it and I did many times and am looking forward to it resolving all the issues!
