Re: cwu let down
I THINK YOU ARE RIGHT TO FEEL THAT THE UNION HAVE DONE THE DIRTY ON US. WITH A GENERAL ELECTION MONTHS AWAY, RM WILL TRY AND BLAG THERE WAY UNTIL THEN. HELLO 4 HOUR DELIVERIES AND VAN SHARING FROM FEBUARY. JANUARY WILL CONSIST OF THE NEW AGREEMENT BEING SOLD TO THE MEMBERS AND YES, THE UNION WILL BE SELLING IT TO US. IF WE ARE TO LEARN ANYTHING FROM STRIKE ACTION IT'S THIS, THE UNION WILL FIGHT UNTIL LONDON GET WHAT THEY WANT THEN SOD THE REST OF US!

Re: cwu let down
Lot of wallowing in self-pity here. Blimey its not as if you weren't forewarned of this. Over SIX months ago I said you were wasting your time and again when the national strikes started. Now London is sorted, they won't want to know. Theres no information being supplied because theres nowt to say. Its done and dusted as far as the union is concerned. All Ward and Hayes have to do now is lay low and go for pastures new. Easy when you know how.
Don't believe everything you're told in the rest room

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Re: cwu let down
How the hell can you claim that London is "sorted"? We were on strike for 15 weeks longer than the rest of the country and haven't gained a single thing in the workplace. It's as though the strikes hadn't even happened. Why do you all believe what your managers tell you about London? It's just divide and rule. If its so great in London why aren't all posties demanding transfers here?? We have gained ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from the I/A and feel cheated by union top brass after losing so much money and then going back when on the verge of winning. I work to time virtually every day (occasioanally cutting out), work my rest day - so 6 day week for me. London has so many people that every walk is hard. Prices are ridiculous for everything but my basic is £401. Why do you so many of you think that we cockneys leave a life of Riley - cos your managers told you this!!

Re: cwu let down
i don't think we will really know whether or not the CWU has let us down untill after xmas. R/M will do what ever it takes to keep the union onboard untill xmas, once we have xmas out of the way it could well be an a completly different ball game.

£401+ £57pw London Weighting + 8hours R/D minium(£80) + D/A £10 + D2D x3 payments £30 = £578 + any extras along the way.
