royal mail should do the decent thing, not had much redundancies for about 5 years, give guys that want out there last chance, give them their 2 years pay !
sounds like the main part of the talks will be on redundancy packages and a better pay deal and no compulsory redundancies good luck with that lot on the other side of the table
That’s exactly why redundancies were put on the table
The union can claim victory that there were no compulsory redundancies when that wasn’t even the issue we were balloted on to begin with
Another “it could have been worse” sham of a deal
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

Letting the days go by, terms and conditions going down
Letting the days go by, hear the rumours going round
New CEO again, after the money's gone
Once every two years, shareholder money will be found
Whatever "deal of the century" they come up with next it should include the dismissal of Simon Thompson. No RM worker will ever trust him again nor forgive his utter contempt for the work force!

Are they seriously saying o/t can continue as normal? When they enforced a cap/ban?!
Wtf?! Yeah, cause it's not like the horse has bolted has it! DO's are totally in the s**t from this and staff are seriously pissed off! All the goodwill has well and truly gone.
People are considering and are leaving because of this mess. What a shambolic operation this company is. How much does RM want to bleed from staff? 'Modernisation' and revisions will push staff to breaking point, if it hasn't already. Good lord.

The talks are now intense, so there will be intense talks as previous talks weren't intense enough or at all, all very tense.
Usual tactics, some tenuous 'common ground' has been reached through intense talks. No resolution, but at least we have both agreed the talks to be intense.
Let's call off the strikes as a sign of goodwill.
Oh look, we've all worked our bollocks off over Christmas and now we're being shafted good and proper.
Except for once, the CWU have kept the strikes for 24/25th and 30th/1st in place…
