Doesn't this three years take Dave Ward into retirement ? Kretsinsky knows once he's gone the union have nothing left after him . Will definitely be an interesting time come that second year in , knowing he can change the terms and conditions... And Dave Ward sits on his sofa with his wad of cash in a salary he's blagged every year since the last strike .

No other company with soo many employees on average 35k a year and plenty of sick involved in their year . Absolutely no doubt his aim will be to cut the work force before the inevitable split up of the company

"The Royal Mail break up is inevitable
Postal strikes are just PR cover – the split has been planned for years"

"It is all but inevitable that the Royal Mail and GLS will split. And yet, even Margaret Thatcher, as she sold off Britain’s national industries, said she was “not prepared to have the Queen’s head privatised”. The government will then have to decide whether a company that has been integral to British identity for five centuries is worth taking back on as a public service or being allowed to wither away, becoming another bankrupt subsidiary of UK plc"

(Old article, but very much fate known)

Associates of Kretinsky have also been appointed to the board. Jiri Zrust, a fellow Czech who is a senior logistics executive at Trafigura, the commodities group, has been appointed as an independent non-executive director.
Oh, I remember them! Apparently the company name wasn't as toxic as the waste they dumped in 2009.
The machine stops.

Now the right wing press think it's the best thing since sliced bread. Tells you absolutely everything you need to know. Get the CBE in here to prove us wrong.

We do need to be on the same ship, I agree, it's easier to move one man than than thousands, so move over and make room for Dan.

What memo to staff?
I read it on my scanner the other day. Came up in the memo tab.
