Now this one should really P** your DOM O**, so come on everyone lets get behind it, It will probabally go along way to helping us to resolve the `whole issue`it`s one that R/Fail have no answer to as it`s part of our terms of Contract/H&S INSTRUCTIONS. And don`t forget when you are on delivery, you do not walk and sort, you stand STILL to sort!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and YES it does take time thats the POINT. So mention it before you leave the office to your line manager as another reason you will be unable to complete. Watch as they turn purple/pink/red. and then mention to them that you are only doing this to protect their Pension as well as your own!

It will be a one to one. Dave chatting to Denis Skinner while the rest of the workers party tuck into Beluga caviar and a few bottles of Moet.
The Industrial Workers of the World. The union whose members never scab!

Well i never the rally is back on, i was wondering about that out on delivery today.

Now perhaps i should wonder about the lottery numbers and treat us RMC regulars to a bloddy good piss up and barbecue outside RM HQ.

Hope he has the balls to tell them that the CWU are pulling all their funding to the Labour party till they actually do something about what is going on in RM...[/quote]



Thats not his decision to make! That is for the political levy paying members to decide in a ballot nexy year around confrence time. BIlly gave a excellent speech earlier this year, go back and read it again and then relax and trust the Billy.

Should be on his blog!
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

"This will strengthen the progressive contribution of the CWU instead the whole Labour movement but it will also ginger up Labour if it had a few more stroppy CWU members involved in party activity".
