I seen it. I thought he done good. Done better than Billy Hayes! He sort of got across the bullying issue. He said he never gets finished on time and the walks are too big but he's pressured into finishing it more or less.

I think you've just hit the nail on the head as to why a reporter is going on a delivery on a Tuesday. Why not a Thursday or Friday. Sky must have permission from management and guess what they chose Tuesday :cfo

Not sure about that. If you think the strikes start Thurs, any media coverage looking into the reasons why need to do this before action starts. Dont you think?

I suppose your right, i'm a bit paranoid at the moment and found it suspicious why they do this on the quietest day of the week. I agree though at least it's out there

I have'nt seen the report yet but will switch on now to try to catch it, but I can confirm today was heavier than most Tuesdays, we work shorts on a Tues and I cut off by about 45mins today. Sounds as if slowly but surely we are getting some better press.

is getting heavier because they are advancing the mail that usually sits round for days untill it has to be delivered
