A total s**t show. Incredible that these people, allegedly on our side, gave up so much for a desperately poor way of working.

A 40hr new contract is now 37hr. Therefore, losing £2200 per year basic. Do Overtime you say, well, the great CWU agreed to flat rate OT. So even less than before. Oh, you get a 1.75% higher wage increase..... BUT WE HAVE LOST £2200 already!!! It makes no difference.

Scandolous that this Union has gotten away with what they have.

Oh, the business might go bust, says Mr Walsh. Seriously? You believe a multimillionaire would his millions for his business to fail?! What planet are you living on?

Let it go bust. Then the government would have to step in to takeover a once proud business.

Thank goodness I haven't many years to go. I left in 2011 because of the first s**t show. It has only gotten worse.

Shame on the CWU and the leaders who allowed this to go ahead.
