Is that it are talks officially finished

[walthmstowman]

Can we read anything into that this has come from Ricky and not Simon?

Well Ricky speaks on behalf of RM so I’ll take it as a positive. If not we’re on more strikes .

[Schiff]

I am disgusted that we have wasted so much time with pointless one day and now two day strikes. We really should be all out through December.

It might end coming to that . Let’s see if something can be sorted out before Thursday but personally I’m not very hopeful

There is no chance of anything being sorted out by next christmas with this shambles of a leadership running our union, along with the shambles of a leadership running RM.

Just think, RM could have given 4% - 5% pay rise in April when inflation was lower than today,with some minor changes agreed and call for Union to discuss matters regarding future change and next years pay as a matter of urgency to get agreements by early next year. It's as though RM top brass just want a war.

Maybe to smash the union for VESA to take over.

I’m inclined to agree but we live in hope.

Honestly think they are trying to force Share price down to make it easier for him.

Another conspiracy theory that came true

After what was put out by the CWU, there is no more face saving for the Union... And RM will not entertain most of the things and the time of their proposal. It is like the CWU are not taking RM seriously - they still think this is a government job and they rule the roost in the workplace.

I am even shocked about how bad and sad and unrealistic the CWU are; I would not talk to them if I were in charge of my own company. They simply want to dictate to the company and continue to hamstrung the company despite not having any business plan themselves.

The tone and the demands are just shocking! No PLC CEO or shareholder board will accept such a statement after more than 6 months of talk.

People should be realistic and know that the path of the CWU is the path to ruin!

See you on the gate.

Or a lazy and factually incorrect assessment of the situation that has gained traction among people who don't actually understand how a takeover would progress.

Whilst I know thats not how it works for a full takeover where he'd have to pay more, he did increase his shareholding considerably during the dispute whilst the price was lower

Can we look forward to seeing Ricky on the tv again
