Where's the new strike dates?

Post by The Postman »

Where's the new strike dates for after Christmas? Haven't the CWU got until tomorrow to notify RM about them? Or are they taking they're foot off the gas? Surely it would be best to keep the pressure on?

It's too late now for any additional IA before Xmas Day. Notification to RM requires 14 days notice on an ongoing basis so they could notify later this week if needed for anything post Xmas.

More strikes are not the answer, in fact it could lose us the dispute, CWU need to come up with new tactics in the new year or even better, get an agreement.

An agreement would be great but ST is standing firm waiting for christmas to pass. I have a feeling the CWU are gonna bottle it on the 2 days before Christmas and it'll be the end for us and them. All this striking for nothing.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

New tactics needed it's not like the old days them in charge don't care ,a 53 per cent drop in share price and their message is the same .we need to minimise the loss of pay yet give the maximum disruption .I would go down the mental route harassment bullying and take them to court .

Week after Xmas should be locked in already. A shambles unless the 24th rumour is true after all…

A comprehensive new recognition agreement has been finalised with logistics giant GXO covering all of the former Supply Chain warehousing and transport operations that were outsourced by BT in May.

What about us?.
