Tomorrow the Labour party conference will debate a motion from the Communication Workers Union attacking Business Secretary Vince Cable’s plans to fully privatise Royal Mail, and committing Labour to keeping Royal Mail entirely in the public sector.
Meanwhile, the CWU has drawn up a plan of action for campaigning on the ground against the coalition and its MPs. As general secretary Billy Hayes explained at the TUC Congress recently:

Re: Royal Mail, Labour conference and the CWU hit list
So the powers that bain't are going to discuss the privatisation of Royal Mail - I can see it all now, earnest faces decrying the Condems for daring to suggest the very thing that only last year they themselves had advocated........... full of powerless rhetoric demanding a public vote and pledging undying support for a campaign to stop the rot....................................

Re: Royal Mail, Labour conference and the CWU hit list
I have said this before and I will say it again.
LABOUR, LIB DEMS & CONSERVATIVE, not one of them will STOP what is going on not only with Royal Mail, but in every national carrier of ALL THE 27 EU COUNTRIES. WHY?, Because PRIVATISATION IS an EU DIRECTIVE, born inside smoke filled rooms by unelected b'eurocrats, who you and I will never know or see.
All 3 main Parties are terrified of asking the people if they want to choose wehter or not we should leave the EU. WHY?
ALL 3 PARTIES ARE SCARED TO TELL THE EU NOT TO INTERFERE IN OUR POSTAL SERVICES! WHY?
NONE OF THEM HAVE THE BALLS TO TELL THE EU WHERE TO GET OFF ON THIS! NOT ONE OF THEM!
You may be interested to know that the only party that was hell bent on fighting to keep the Royal Mail a public service was and still is, is UKIP!
UNLESS WE GET A REFERENDUM ON US LEAVING THE EU, WE ARE f****d! This generation growing up has never known a truely FREE Britain, free from this kind of European dictat. It is time that some one like Ed Milliband listens to reason and puts the people of Britain first, grows some balls and leads this country out of this ridiculous money sucking club of faceless Euro-crats who want to flood our country witrh their foreign workers, poor pay rates & conditions while telling us who we can and can not let in to do our jobs, what we can and can not work for, and eventually what side of the road we will drive on. :mfo
It is time to stand up for ourselves comrades, it is time to stand up for our country, it is time to stand up for our childrens future.
