YOUR PENSION IS AT STAKE WOULD YOU STRIKE FOR IT

Post by k979aaa »

I now firmly believe this to be the case and if we do nothing no one will notice for if one and all is to gain airtime this is the only way to bring our plight too the public!. And too bring royalfail to a position closer too our's and in doing so to meet our aspiration's!.

can you really expect anyone in the scheme to vote no?? if they did they need there head read
there is only one motive for all of this and the only people to lose will be rm members
the cwu have no backbone they showed that in the latest dispute so i fear that the pensions will be cut and there will be nothing we could do about it
lets all look forward to working for another 5 years and then get less benefits than we would get now

We need to get across the message we as a body will never accept anything less than a finnal salary!. For that is what i joined for and is the least i expect but not only is this for one it is for all and should remain so for all and their is no reason to concede anything for i know royalmail is cooking the book's!.
