I've been reading the headlines for months about BA and how they would be going on strike before xmas.

Good on them i say, and they certainly have a stronger union than ours, thats for sure.

Its Unite - the same as our Managers - I suppose though its proof that members are the driving force.

Lets wait until the 22nd, I bet they agree to 'talks'

Can't wait to hear the terms of the "Interim Agreement". Should go something like "We are having a period of calm to get us through the lucrative christmas period and then we will have meaningful discussions about how we are going to cut your pay and conditions."

Funny you should say that, I was talking to a flight steward who lives on my walk near Heathrow today and he was saying the top HR bloke fighting the union for BA is an ex top RM HR boss - he did say his name but I can't remember Good luck to em!

Dont worry we will be going on strike after christmas how goods that - BA staff voted 9 to 1 you watch um get exactly what they want by the new year. Within the next couple of inflated years our pay at RM will barely meet with the minimum wage. What was our last pay rise (1.9% ?) over 3 years thats not a good deal

[eian687]

what's the bets once christmas is over Royal mail walk away from the negotiations

I Don't think they will,They are getting pretty much what they want anyway.

Our insider said a solicitor was consulted. The source said: "He said if staff could be provoked into unofficial action they could all be sacked and have no legal redress. It would also mean the company could seek damages from individuals."

Scarey.

and on an 80% turnout. Impressive, when you consider turnout in our ballot was a lot less, despite most of us walking past several postboxes every day and yet seemingly unable to care enough to post our ballot paper back so it can add weight to our fight
