Well then will they?

I tend to think they will as Royal Mail hate it's own workforce.

I would say they have gone from being probable to definitely. People are fed up with the balls the CEO and his cronies keep coming out with. They really don’t get it do they.

Judging by the latest Bulls*** letter urging the Union to call it off its 1000% GOT to go ahead, I don't want any climb down here unless ALL points are hammered out and in writing.

Hasn’t Thompson realised yet? He and the union will have to do a deal? Sooner or later. Change will happen but it’s got to involve us.

He thinks he can go it alone but that isn't going to work when you are dealing with the amount of people involved here.

The fella can barely string a word together without help so maybe he's a bit dim.

The backdated payrise to me is massive.I won't vote for any deal that hasn't got it.
The company can take as long as they want in any other pay negotiations and you just have to accept that?

Correct

There has to be ZERO incentive for the business to string pay negotiations out for a long time
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

If they back dated the remaining 7% and didn’t change the sick pay I would be happy with that.
I don’t mind starting later and finishing later. I don’t mind even cutting down to 5 day letter service (if that is allowed to happen.) and I don’t mind how many VR they offer as long as CR was scrapped.
