Re: London Rally
Forgive me if im missing something but if the plan is to mobilise posties from all ends of the country is it not a bit silly to have it the day before a working day rather than on the first day of a 2 day strike

If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

Re: London Rally
Union can’t win can it ? They are trying to mobilise thousands of workers to descend on London , this will be on every news and raise the profile of our dispute, would you rather they sat back and said nothing ? Thompson will have to do interviews and every time he does he’s a shambles.heraldmoth wrote: ↑30 Nov 2022, 12:08Silly end of! childish and delusional not to mention offensive to those of us nowhere near (oh that’s right we don’t really count)

Re: London Rally
Unfortunately everthing does tend to revolve around London, especially Politics. This Strike certainly has Political aspects. I suppose because both CWU, and RM, have their HQs in London it kind of make sense.heraldmoth wrote: ↑30 Nov 2022, 12:08Silly end of! childish and delusional not to mention offensive to those of us nowhere near (oh that’s right we don’t really count)
I have even more Respect for colleagues who are willing to travel greater distances to support their Union? There's talk of Members getting flights to come over from NI!
You also have to realise that Journalists are lazy buggers and don't really like having to travel outside the M25, every Human Interest story you hear seems to be from inside the M25, therefore it'll get more coverage....

Throw in a night at the Savoy and I'm in otherwise it's a big ask.

Re: London Rally
Not much use for those of us who have the job so we can be at our kids schools by 3, isn't that one of the things we are striking for?!

You can’t please everyone all the time , they also said those that can’t make the demo will still be needed on picket lines up and down the country.Kenfandango wrote: ↑30 Nov 2022, 13:20Not much use for those of us who have the job so we can be at our kids schools by 3, isn't that one of the things we are striking for?!![]()

Re: London Rally
Hardly a complete blackout. We watched that crank Piers Corbyn get arrested for 5G Coronavirus conspiracy theory nonsense on more than one occasion.
Or was that the Free Cornwall March? Hard to keep a track of all that lunacy.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Re: London Rally
Can't really expect us jocks to come all the way to london for a rally then straight back home afterwards for work next day.
