royal mail strike
OP
OP
the workers are not whats ruining Rm.heres another one for you to ponder.
do you have sky,virgin,BT?
look at the letter,it doesnt have an RM stamp on it does it?
no they are delivered under downstream access.where RM is obliged ot deliver other companys mail for them.
these companys are allowed to undercut RM but RM cannot undercut them.
why are there no mail deliveries during the strike? companys like TNT have the licence to do it and already handle loads of mail but leave the costly part to RM.
downstream access LOSSES are up from 14 million to 40 million this year.
oh and allen leighton ,one of the RM chiefs is on the board of sky.yet uses tntfor mail :chin:
Was nothing to do with the s*it cars (marina,allegro,herald etc)they were making at the time then
This is a closed debate.
The Public don't know what the real issues are and how it effects them.
Allan Leighton is on the board of News International and has created a news blackout on how this situation is reported, only allowing the Royal Mail propoganda machine to go forward.
The CWU have failed us miserably by not reporting, leafleting and buying space in the papers to inform the public of what's going on, if they knew they would back us without question.
Custard, I won't get int any debates with people outside of our industry as they are not armed with the full facts and details therefore making their opinions null and void, or to put t another way, totally irrelevant.
We have read hundreds of pages of lierature on the changes these goons propose and the net result will be a fragmented postal service, the closur of thousands of Post Offices, 85% of employes part time (how will they retain staff on £135 a week for 20 hours work), a much reduced pension for staff that have been paying in for years (a-la-Rober Maxwell) and now the positive, Royal Mail making profits......................................
At what cost though?

curse your quick witty comebacks:bang:
Hang on I dont live anywhere near the sea
thats why you have a long commute
strike sucks i want my post got loads of stuff coming in mail. dam postman.
thats a touch unfair, it takes two to tango...and the management who have no issue with with awarding themselves a decent salary, have been just as much to blame for leading the operation right into the poo chute

its cool jai,if/when RM get their way we can listen to everyone complaining of how poorer the service is,how they have no local post office/post box,post isnt coming until 5pm,no regular postie then RM will get the price cap removed and you can pay a premium for the service they have ripped to shreds :idea:
Is support for the strike waning?
Royal Mail claim 50% of the workforce are working as normal and Special Delivery is working normally too!
So, who had mail today?
I didn't!

i wouldnt rely on it,that mail wont hit delivery till wednesday at the earliest
as for not mattering,it will if the postie stops at there designated finish time rather than working on
Makes a change for them to do any work round here anyway.
