ROYAL MAIL AND THE POSTAL SERVICES BILL10.06.2009 http://edmi.parliament.uk/EDMi/EDMDetai ... ESSION=899" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Hoyle, Lindsay
That this House calls on the Government to withdraw the Postal Services Bill and the proposals to part-privatise Royal Mail; notes that since the publication of the Hooper Review, the environment in which Royal Mail operates has significantly changed and that subsequent analysis and reports examining the impact of the Government's proposals raises doubts over the benefits of part-privatisation; further notes that 75 per cent. of people oppose the part-privatisation of Royal Mail, with 60 per cent. of people saying it needs to be reformed but remain in the public sector; and calls on the Government to listen and respond to these wide-ranging concerns and re-examine their proposals to ensure that Royal Mail is modernised, not privatised, and remains a wholly publically-owned organisation.

Main problem of course now is, even if by some miracle the 'sale' does not go ahead, there have been too many changes on the 'coal face' so to speak,that will not be reversed,so the Postie will not be any better off.
I think more emphasis now should be put on the preservation of original contracts,alongside the 'no privatisation' banner.
