Re: CWU FIGHTBACK
were changes forced in under executive action? if so ask your rep about contacting branch to ask to be balloted for strike action, the more the merrier.postmanx wrote:We have allready had the changes forced in!!! This Action Needs To Be Nationwide!!!!

Re: CWU FIGHTBACK
What a laugh in the office today,as soon as they were told that I was 'finishing on my time',the managers told me they would be counting my mail,nae problemo to me,up stairs I went for my 40 minute break,came down and left a row and a half.
Also in the office today were 2 high heid yins from the HR dept in Edinburgh,a few handpicked folk were asked to go down and speak to them to help them understand 'why there was an overwhelming vote for industrial action in Dunfermline' (their words not mine),they were told that Dunfermline was very loyal to the union and that industrial action would last as long as needed,and as long as it took to get Royal Mail back round the national table,well done to the lads who stood up to this pair of lackeys.
Has any folk from the other offices involved in the action this weekend had visits from these two?
