It's probably futile, yet the alternative is worse. IDS will be back year on year cutting everything and turning the screw.

Renationalised and living wage seems attractive.

We are being treated appallingly on a daily basis and all the powers that be know it. Provide me with one single incentive to work for Royal Mail as it stands.

The Government is not going to waste money on a mangey old dog and even if it was possible just because it was given away for a song the first time doesn't mean it will again and if the government were our bosses again they will not give in to the the Union's every demand.

If the government gets anything back it’ll be the letters side of the business. And they won’t pay anything more than minimum wage.

Won’t happen anyway. Best people spend their time looking at other employment if they are not happy with the changes.

You was right the 1st time. RM is currently public, hence shares being available for public to buy. Twitter was made private recently, which is why shares aren't available to buy for that company.

They would when the MPs get loads of complaints from their constituents about having to pay £4-5 for EACH letter that they send if RM ever did enter administration

That's because Elon Musk brought it outright making him the sole owner of the brand and can turn it into a private company.

Never going to happen. Certainly not how people want it to, anyway. The letters side could end up nationalised again, as things like the NHS currently still rely on paper. I've no doubt it'll be stripped back to bare minimums though. The USO will go (in its current form) along with much of the workforce.

You could spit of GLS and PF but apart from that any other splitting off is both physically and logistically impossible
