Went "Dutch" to shaft us after all, Didn't we strike to get a deal and are RM really reneging on the deal?
CWU were against CS from the start.

No. I am thinking he is referring in his indomitable way to:

Radioactive iodine from Japan found in Oxford and Scotland http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/standard/ ... cotland.do" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; :shock: :nervous :nervous :nervous :nervous :nervous :nervous :nervous :nervous :nervous
Are we going to get an advice leaflet from RM (along with the usual WTLL session) on staying out of the radioactive rain during the worst of the weather :wink:

Yep, rubbished the share scheme from the start and low and behold:-

Additionally both parties recognise that ColleagueShares operates in a way that replaces our traditional approach to productivity and that only by reaching this agreement and working together to deliver transformation will the value of ColleagueShares be higher. The current value is £1.51 per share. They will be bought back by the company in two equal parts in 2011 and 2012.

Next you'll be telling us they were against World Class Mail from the start. Doh!!!!

I`ve never crossed a picket line but would be sorely tempted if things came to a head. I seriously believe that the CWU is either in cahoots with RM, or is totally incompetent and toothless. The number of agreements that have affected our allowances, conditions and OT rates over the years is beyond belief.
cwu was never in favour of colleague shares and wanted money on pay instead biffothepostie

Well despite not being in favour, that's what we ended up with NOT money on pay.............so there's winners and losers and guess which side we are on..........................again! Even some of the famous union posters on here described the deal as "winners and losers" ..........that from an organisation looking for solidarity.............yeah right.
