Re: What now
They will bring executive action in anyway doesn't matter if we are out or not would be an idea to give some people chance to gather some savings before we go again.

Re: What now
Can’t see anything other than most of this being in place before another ballot even takes place, really difficult to see anything positive ahead, everything is in place for the Royal Mail to completely go down the toilet. Fingers crossed whatever the pay rise it will be back dated as a good will gesture

Re: What now
We could do with more strike dates.
Give people a few weeks to build up some cash, then go for weekly 2 day strikes, or maybe Sat/ Mon for a few weeks, something like that.
We can't leave it until the new ballot, but I'm worried that's what the union will do.

Re: What now
It’s all over. The union thought the strikes during Christmas would make Royal Mail fold and make a somewhat decent agreement. They didn’t and now the union don’t have a clue what to do next. If Royal Mail didn’t back down during Christmas then they never will, they are hell bent on these disastrous business wrecking changes and nothing is going to stop them.

Re: What now
At this point yes. If the union had used the massive backing they had from us to hit them hard with proper strike action then things may have been different. The one day a week nonsense between August and November was a complete waste of time. I don’t want to slag the union off too much as I know it’s better to have them than not, but many times over the years they have fumbled and dropped the ball sadly.
