you're doing a top job, you should be proud of yourself . . . . . . . . . Sevenoaks post office is not one of the ones due for closure just yet so all the staff in there have just said "it's not our problem" and won't walk out . . . . . I'm disgusted by their lack of support and will remind them of this when they are closed (as they surely will be if the changes go ahead) . . . . .why is it the CWU don't combine our actions to get a bigger public reaction

True - However I'm off to picket the PO in town on Wednesday bit of a show of support.

This is just me holding the syndicalist view, but I don't see why anyone in the same union or industry should be left to fight alone. There are a couple of hundred thousand members in this union and if we all acted together, POL wouldn't be in this fix and MDEC would be on the same rate of pay as the rest of us. 'Unity is Strength!' That was always a basic principle along with 'An Injury to One is an injury to All'.

I have to be honest ulster - this worries me 2 - will the counters be left to struggle on on their own or will our RM colleagues be in it to the bitter end for us too?
