I immediately thought how that would go down on merseyside when I read the OP. I completely agree not fit for poo-paper....NewPostieUK wrote:If some people refused to deliver UKIP, BNP and Conservative stuff, then I'm gong to refuse to deliver this piece of cr*p.

Work to your time. More indoor work, less out door. Stop playing their game. If they want them delivered in two days the CWU should be pushing for extra wonga.

Both parties also recognise that in addition to growth in the core D2D product further commercial opportunities are likely to exist particularly for named/specific day(s) products and/or Saturdays which may provide Royal Mail with additional scope for increased revenue. In order to take advantage of any potential in this area any further commercial opportunities will remain subject to ongoing dialogue, joint monitoring and review and will also be discussed and agreed with the CWU nationally at the quarterly review meetings with a view to capturing any viable opportunities for the mutual benefit of Royal Mail and its employees and to also deal with any workload issues.

Dear sirs,
as a regular purchaser of your newspaper, I was delighted to see that a free issue would be available to be delivered by Royal Mail and so did not purchase a copy yesterday. The paper has not turned up yet and my postman tells me that due to the fact that there is a Liverpool fan in the office who is a nice chap, that they have all refused to handle the paper so as not to hurt his feelings. I have no idea what the "feelings" thing is about as I never read your paper, but only use it as cat litter and my poor pussies are now cross legged awaiting a fresh edition to add more crap to.
Perhaps feeling that a circulation of 2,250,000 was a good reason to inflict your poisonous paper on a further 19 million households who would never choose to buy it,in the hope that your reporters would gain some credibility, was not a good idea.
I shall now switch my allegiance to the Daily Mail, which Fluffy and Prudence find to be much more absorbent.
Yours sincerely - Angry of Manchester

Why the hell am I reading this in The Guardian and not being told about it and the various arrangements for delivery by my DIM?ewancurze wrote: It seems that we have to deliver 22 Million copies of the Sun on 12th June to coincide with the World Cup.
