Tough questions for Bob Gibson in Liverpool

[MinisterofCucumber]

Bob Gibson is due to address reps at a meeting in Liverpool at 11am today.

Can anyone attending please give us updates of how the meeting is going. It should be entertaining.

I suggest that when the name 'Roger Poole' is invoked, the audience should drop to their knees and imitate praying to Mecca while chanting 'Roger Poole, Roger Poole...'

what if they are 'pool supporters...would they not prefer - ROGER EVERTON ?

Do you think Bob Gibson will have to tell anyone to 'calm down'?

[MinisterofCucumber]

Anyone going to this meeting, don't just sit there and let him bang on for hours. Ask your questions as the issues arise. Don't let him abuse your politeness.

This proposal takes the piss. It's all about meeting the 31.12.10 deadline for the full market opening of the EU postal sector.

[Big Daz]

BG wont bang on for hours, the meeting will start with Dave, then move on around the national officers to explain the agreement for each of their respective responsibities MC for BG for outdoor RE for MTSF.

Short break to allow trips to the gents/ladies

Then Q and A with the appropiate national officer for the question being asked responding.

As for the deadline the UK market was opened up years ago so it will have no bearing on RML. Please could you explain further as I may be missing your point.

[MinisterofCucumber]

"The objective of the EU postal policy is to accomplish the Single Market for postal services and ensure a high quality universal postal service as part of the Lisbon Agenda. It thus focuses on postal customers, both business and consumers. These objectives are pursued by opening up the sector to competition in a gradual and controlled way on the basis of the regulatory framework of the Postal Directive (Directive 97/67/EC as amended by Directive 2002/39/EC) and as amended by Directive 2008/06/EC). The improvement of quality of service, in particular in terms of delivery performance and convenient access are fundamental aspects of this policy. The Commission monitors and ensures the correct implementation of the regulatory framework and, where appropriate, proposes changes to this framework in order to achieve the Community's postal policy objectives.

Under the 3rd Postal Directive (Directive 2008/06/EC), full market opening will be accomplished by 31 December 2010 for the majority of Member States with a further two years allowed for 11 Member States. "
