You have no conception of any other thinking other than trade union consciousness which in the end is bourgeois consciousness. A rank and file committee would have to have a socialist strategy and know-how to fight for one. All you did was set up a parallel bureaucracy no wonder it failed
But to be fair I didn't have you too point out the errors of my bourgeois consciousness.
So are you in a rank and file committee in your Royal Mail workplace?
What concrete gains have you achieved (and I don't mean you have fought for renationalisation or wrote to other groups on the other side of the world and other airy fairy aims) because if you can't point to anything concrete then as I suggested earlier you are just whacking off on the sidelines.
And I would rather have a bourgeois consciousness than be an inept w****r.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
Well I can see you operate on a high intellectual level. On a serious note remove the insult or I will take it to the administrator. At no point have I attacked you personally, it has no place in this discussion.

Why not take it to the rank and file committee?
You can't go running to the moderator - that's just bourgeois.
So - what concrete gains?
Where in RM (which function) is your rank and file committee?

If you don't work for Royal Mail - just say so.
If you aren't a member of a rank and file committee - just say so.
If you cannot give any concrete gains you have made in the workplace - just say so.
You are done talking to me? Is that how you intend to prosecute the class struggle?
I doubt if Rosa would be proud of you.

As I think we've asked a hundred times merson, what happens when every Delivery Office sets up a rank and file committee and resigns from the CWU?
Do 1000 separate rank and file committees attempt to negotiate with Royal Mail or does someone have to organise them to speak as one?
Are you aware of the history of the postal unions, separate bargaining, splits and divides.... John Keggie?
As you will probably know a revolution can only be achieved by strong leadership of the masses by an individual or a very select few so who do you have in mind?
