higson, the bumbling baffoon

apparently we deliver 75 million items a day now :shock:

He refuses to go to the acas people

eamonn holmes called the tuc marriage councillors :funneh

he kept mentioning xmas, they are not serious, he came accross as an idiot, not the head of a major uk institution


once xmas is gone rm will do as they want, hence no acas, hence no agreement,

The guy also claimed a backlog of only 2 million, and that this backlog will on tke 2 days to clear :whistle ;liar

And you forgot to add that he also said that it is really a one day strike spread across three days. And completely failed to answer the posed question by the Sky News presenter about going directly to ACAS. We all know that any facilitated talks by ACAS are legally binding by both parties.

The Processing Rep from Birmingham MC, Mahmood Ali, came across well.
Said that managers are constantly antagonising the workforce.

Mahmood Ali did a good job as it must be quite nerve racking :nana :nana
Christmas Christmas, Christmas- That is all Higson kept on about. When will RM come to their senses and realise, the workforce want a job AFTER Christmas as well.
No one in their right mind goes out in the middle of summer.
Good luck to all

They continue to repeat that statement to plant fear within the minds of the general populace to make it look like they care & get the public to turn against us.
