The "public" and the "Government" are different things, don't conflate them.
You swallowed a dictionary? I will "conflate" them because I think it's important.

I don't like lecturing people on here but you do need to see beyond Simon Thompson
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

Not really worried re Simons comments
What i like to know from you all here and pretty sure you will confirm
Hearing lot of areas failing walks same amouts as covid period !!
heard depot failed 17 last week !!
Lack of staff-loss of experienced full timers re IPS leaving/retired etc and not replaced
How are things in your area
Hopefully Ricky Simon read these-or somebody does for them
Appears lots of depot overwhelmed with Mail ?????????????????
Thought we did not have any !!!!!!!!!!!!
If your not really worried about Simons comments...you should be he knows depots are failing things like this are always designed,its the only way they can split the USO from the parcels to get on with pillaging the company pretend that letters arent important they can't seem to shake off the USO.

So at the hub office i work at 70% of the workforce turned up on friday royal mail had asked our 11 agency workers to arrive at 10 o'clock, nine ours pay the managers were scrambling around looking for work sending some of them out with 9 parcels i kid you not our manager was pulling his hair out the last one was sent home around 3 o'clock happy days full pay for them not good for royal mail finances there again maybe this is what simon wants accounts showing a massive loss so they can plead poverty get the uso watered down royal mail are throwing money out of the window to achieve this goal.

Why not announce loads of strikes and cancel them at short notice.

Yes it would tie in with how his rhetoric is put out,if he posts profits next financial month then he can't lie as shady as he has been.

Simon seems to be doing his level best to antagonise the workforce and my gut feeling is that he wants to leave anyway.

But he's really not the man that the CWU want to discuss business with. Its the organ grinder and Chairman of Royal Mail, not the "instant gratification monkey" putting out tweets and pointless workspace comments.
He trying his hardest to get the sack because he know's he will walk away with a £5 million pay off,that's what they all do,we see it all the time.

Just like football managers when theyve lost the dressing room
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

I don't like the guy anyone who can cost the public purse so much and yet get a job is a sign he is pretty useless at managing anything, Unless the need to go bankrupt so as to change the regulations the governments of passed and present have set down in regulation. Lets see the BOOKS and see what he has done would absolutely love it bring it on!
