For they will be the first to bleat about it because they were not informed/aware of the implications of the deal for which they did not care about and never voted for or against!. APATHY

or the question shuld be put as to how many of the 60,000 are still in royal fails 'care' lets face it dave and brydon have a vested intrest and i'd belive that any devious way they could swing it their way would be used. hence.............. the result !!!

it's the new found way of the cwu and royal fail 'working together' do i trust our leaders .......NO WAY it really is time for them to be ousted

JCL, your manager should be doing a preference exercise to see what people want, if that means you start earlier, then he should try to honour that.

see your rep and try to come to some arrangement. The deal is in now, so get out of it whatever you can.

Goodluck.
