Post by cwurep1 »

Gordon Brown has really got the blood boiling.
Gordon Brown said at Prime Minister’s Questions that there was no justification for carrying on the strike, which has paralysed postal services since last Thursday, and that the dispute should be “brought to an end on the terms that have been offeredâ€

I heard him saying that on PMQ's,
I've always thought this dispute was the result of political machinations and that has confirmed it for me. Its all about getting the RM ready to be sold off.
Labour to me always represent the working man with conscience and responsibility, not now the are just as vile and avorous as the Tories at their complete worst. I feel more disenfranchised now that I have ever been. :evil/mad

Is there anyway that the political levy part of the union subs can be stopped? This government no longer speaks for me and i object to the fact that at least part of my union subs are being used to finance them.

Alito-- see your branch secretary or rep and he can get you a form to fill in that will stop your contribution. i think it is only about 20p per week but it is the principle that counts and i like you urge everyone to do it. why contribute to a political party that is intent on taking us down.

But the levy does not just go to them it goes to all sorts of political activists within the union and outside the labour party. It also goes towards local political activities of local branches of the CWU,
