Royal Mail Says It Would Suffer a Full-Year Loss From Strike

[Acca Dacca]

Well it'd be no use f***ing striking if it meant Royal Mail became more profitable due to the action would it

Apart from the announced 4 strike days can we announce more days/weeks without anymore voting?

Si,better tell this big customer to switch to another courier at least until after Christmas You have brought on this battle on and as far as I am concerned I would rather smash this company to pieces than allow you and your narcissistic friends to get their way.

Of course this is my own personal opinion but in over 20 years I’ve never seen such determination and anger on the shop floor As far as I can see we have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

" they will be moving their parcels volume from Royal Mail to Evri - from 22nd August to 12th September…."

They probably saw ParcelForce giving their contracts to Evri and took it as a recommendation. The amount of bullshit Si comes out with, I expect RM to be out of business before Christmas.

Good let them see just how s**t other companies actually are at delivering mail oh shouldn't the company have been spending far longer grower business with them. Cannot be that big a business if they are only operating on a monthly contract basis

We are not losing 1M a day, we are potentially losing 1M a day on revenues, so when we deliver 2 or more items to an dress and the sender has 7sed the same label, or the weight on the label says 1kg, when clearly its much heavier.

If they invested in technology that scanned the label and weighed, they could then retain the item/charge the supplier, but they would rather give shareholders 400M, and stick their piggies snouts in the trough for more bonuses and free shares!

Bye bye Simon, and take Ricky and Williams with you!
