#WeAreStillHere hmmmmmm.......yes quite,
Where were you last week though? Oh that's right, having an extended xmas holiday!
Hmm... I don't think that's quite true, they were clearly in discussions that lead to concessions being made by RM, in order to progress talks, and strikes to be put on hold. It's obvious things were happening, during this period. Just because the union aren't talking directly to you every minute of the day, doesn't mean they're on holiday.

Where’s redlen? I am sure he’s got an opinion.
Maybe he got sacked for striking on the 24th? :hmmmm
Naa, he's got a new line to tug, since we didn't all get sacked. It's all about CWU backstabbing now.

The CWU might be holding off on any strikes to avoid the risk of ballot papers and the returns getting caught up in any backlog. If that were to happen I expect it'd give RM fodder to get the ballot thrown out in court

Also it will be a bit embarrassing for us.
CWU loses right to take strike action because of erm CWU strike action.
They'll be laughing their heads off whilst drinking tax payer subsidised beer in the House of Commons Bar.
Oh the irony.

When Labour win the next election I'm sure they will repeal any anti-union legislation.

Starmer has publicly said he will. He also publicly said a lot of other things, that he has then went and reneged on.

There's no chance the Starmer will change anything he's in the UniParty with the Tories.
The choice at the Ballot box is purely illusory.

If you don't want to strike then it is better to vote yes. The more people who vote no will allow Royal Mail to try to push through with their agenda, meaning more strikes to stop this.
We need as many people voting yes, even more than before and this dispute will end a lot quicker.

Oh and as to Labour .......

I know it doesn't work like this, but I'd love for Simon to stand up in court and testify that there is a backlog.
The machine stops.

Pay is the only gripe I have, I believe it should always be at least with inflation.
