Real reasons behind privatization

Post by chrisn-6 »

Not sure if this has been publicised on this forum and I have only worked for RM as a temp but I feel you need to know what is happening. This is from an anti-EU website.

"So, what can we do? We know that, if the Royal Mail is privatised, services will be cut and tens of thousands of jobs will go. But it seems that none of the Royal Mail staff or unions know that it is their EU masters that are threatening their jobs. Perhaps we should tell them? I was therefore wondering if some readers could ask their postmen for their personal email address and send them the following email:

Subject: How EU directives are forcing Britain to sell off the Royal Mail

Clearly you know about the Government’s plan to sell off the Royal Mail. The likely result will be cuts in services and perhaps 20,000 or more job losses over the next few years.

Have you wondered why the Royal Mail is being sold off? And have you wondered why the Labour Party is not protesting against the sale?

This is because the reason for the Royal Mail being sold is that EU directives are forcing the Government to privatise the Royal Mail http://www.snouts-in-the-trough.com/archives/5875" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; But our leaders are terrified of Royal Mail workers finding out about this as this would lead to a backlash against the EU and a huge surge in support for UKIP.

When France was told to sell off their postal service, La Poste, they told the EU to get stuffed http://www.snouts-in-the-trough.com/archives/5889" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

But Britain’s EU-subservient leaders have grovelingly agreed to do what their EU masters tell them.

The EU is about to destroy our mail service and destroy many of your jobs. You and your union should be protesting about this EU interference in British affairs.

Please pass this email on to other postal workers."

- So I have.
