I can get on it

Latest says

5th November 2009

Talks between the CWU and Royal Mail took place at TUC headquarters in central London yesterday (Wednesday) chaired by TUC general secretary Brendan Barber.

The CWU Postal Executive has a meeting today (Thursday) starting at 12 noon.

Both the CWU and Royal Mail have agreed not to speak publicly about the detail of the discussions so far.

The two national strikes on Friday 6th November and Monday 9th November - involving all 121,000 members in Royal Mail Letters - are set to go ahead as planned.

Just heard that the rm broke "THE DEAL" news leak and made out it has come from a union source,
so that when cwu confirm strikes are going ahead tomorrow it looks like we have walked away from a deal and make us look bad in the eyes of the public.

The only way the union should call off the strike action is if RM agree to go to ACAS, anything short of this and ;liar RM ;liar will just re-interpret any deal agreed now in January and continue with the agenda that was leaked some tine ago once Christmas is over.

These people have told us lies before so I hope the union remembers this as Royal Mail can not be trusted. :cfo

Hmm.... not sure this follows really. Dingo posted the first message like he pretty much knows the score and not as a rumour. We'll see, however.

If a deal has been reached it wants to involve the reinstatement of local agreements,loss of earnings and the recognising of the union in the workplace.We have had to put up with bullying and harassment by managers which should now stop!!!...Like others my office has been out for about 20 days so anything else would not be good enough!!!!

I was led to belive that RM and the Union have to give 24hrs to call and cancel a strike.
