Would that not support the Tory Party election campaign just as much?

traditionally voters associate national strikes and pickets with The Labour Party & Millitant Trade Unions
Millions of peeved voters having their xmas post disrupted will in all liklehood use thier votes to show their displeasure at the ballot box.
So i fear that any strike / ind action will be postponed.

You seriously believe that voters will use their vote as a protest against a striking RM?

It WILL damage The Labour party's election campaigm and take votes away from them,
The TU are labours biggest donor and long for someone like Corbyn to get elected so he can renationalise all the big industries and go back to the good old days.
I have told you what will happen
The strike will be postponed so as not to damage Corbyns & Labours chances in the GE
I tell u what
I'll come back here when they extract themselves from holding industrial action before the GE
and we will have this comversation again.

Tweet from Dave Ward; "Lots of people asking if postal workers would strike during a general election. To be clear - we will do whatever it takes to defend our members.

I jokingly said to them that they will probably have to deliver their election leaflets themselves because we will most likely be on strike !. Is that just around here was the reply. No its national and did my best to tell them what the current situation is. I think you had better look into that were my parting words. Quite clearly its not common knowledge even in the political world or certainly not filtered down to local level yet. Apologies if this has gone slightly off topic .
