Royal Mail crisis deepens: Losses to hit GBP745m as months of industrial action take their toll

IDS should spin GLS and give Royal Mail to the union to manage. It would be fun to watch them running an analog business in a digital age with the 1970s mentality.

They`d make a better job of it. They`ve tabled a number of number of progressive ideas apparently that RM are not interested in. They don`t strike me as being dinosaurs. Have you been taking your ideas about unions from the Sun and Mail again?.

That 70s mentality runs both ways. Thinking the Union is bad because it's a Union is a classic 70s Anti Union mantra.

Of course, Royal Mail and the union both are equally to blame for its current state. RM can not survive much longer if it can not turn around its fortune immediately. The current status quo can not continue. Otherwise, it's just a matter of time before it follows the fate of FlyBe. The privatisation of RM was the start of its downfall. I lost complete faith in the union due to its failure to stop RM from being privatised. It's all about making a profit for private companies, and RM is no exception.
