CWU either accept deal or strike. Stop wasting our time

[CRIBMAD]

Its over a month and a half since the overwhelming ballot result in favour of strikes. And royal mail have been stringing you along for months. The mandate is running out and the clock is ticking.......

Its been over a year since April 2022 and our piss poor 2% (against 10% inflation) payrise. Its 2023/24 already. We need some money now.

Either accept the deal and give us our money or announce some strike dates. Stop wasting our time.

How much longer are we going to wait?

There is no deal on offer. Talks have broken down.

It was only announced a few hours ago, chill out.

Okey dokey I have taken my chill pill now :-) Just get on with it CWU

We need to strike for a week everything else has been tried.

Why your on strike for a week I’m going into clean up on o/t oh good luck

Can you clear my frame while you’re at it?

why your on strike ! illiterate as well as immoral you make me sick !

Who knows but enough for everyone to receive 1500 pro rata

As you say, pro rata, and BEFORE tax and NI are deducted.

But if it was put to a vote you'd have thousands voting for it, as they cannot see beyond the lump sum figure, a very clever tactic by RM that never seems to let them down, I am very sad to say.

Accept this deal and you become a slave, your call but don't come on this forum when your "sugar rush"runs out moaning about terms and conditions

Excellent.
Dangle a and the all bite. Only later they realise they've been bitten.

We have already had a 10% rise this year, in Fck£N delivery points ...............

I am very glad I have not been a part of this trade union for over 10 years. I knew that the union had no plan for the future and that the union representatives were people chosen by chance, favorites of the main headquarters. Seeing their faces every day and the hatred with which they look at me always puts me in a good mood.

There would be a deal if the union agreed and put it to a vote as they should.

do you think they would be a deal if it went to a vote ? , i dont think so imo .

Rambo has buckled to the masters.

I don't buckle to anyone, CWU or RM (but maybe the wife on occasion) lol. Got my own mind and I'll make it up as I see fit but won't be brainwashed.

Pay Pay Pay, Although it helps to have a pay rise i am more concerned about the T&Cs and the health of the workforce.

[grchpo]

If we go on strike we will get NO public support. RM will say we turned down a 10% rise & £1500 lump sum, they will not give out any details, we will just be branded as greedy & lazy.
Message to union "put this to a vote, if we vote for it you win, if we reject it you win & we strrike" but if you do nothing you lose & we lose. Think carefuly

We are brainwashed from birth it just depends how you perceive things.

Rm have outfought and outsmarted the cwu because of their dithering,they have put an offer to employees,whether good or bad,the cwu walked away and all we get is more silence,no statement nothing I can see why members are disillusioned!!

[needadvice]

We'll get a statement tomorrow evening while people are making their way down the M1 to start the Easter holidays

[SpacePhoenix]

At this point I wouldn't put it past RM to place the firm into administration just so that they could rip up all our contracts

[Poppyellie69]

Not good enough cwu walked away why?? Tell us at least rm told us their offer!!

[fmrPOSTIE]

I think the deal is a bit less bad than what’s been offered before. To be honest keeping the allowances is progress and if they want to change new starters T&Cs that’s unfortunately part of every organisation these days.

I’m in the same boat now -having left Royal Mail- working in the NHS a “one-off lump sum” has been offered £1700 before deductions and 5pc for this year.

No one believes inflation will come down this quickly hence why I have voted NO on the nhs pay deal and so have my work colleagues !
