If you are told the price for which you could sell your services you would be as bankrupt financially as morally ignorant too the cause and effect of royalmail's policies which you so vehemently support!.
I don't support theirs OR yours:) As for poor postmen, who are you trying to kid.
Must remember too pay the cleaner £6500 should do i will get it from the small change and its a bit rich coming from you NT do tell us all what your function is (AGENT PROVOCATEUR) or is it something more juicy than the humble postie?.

Rhetoric? This pension will matter greatly in 18 months time when I retire. If you're retired, then you will know I stand to lose far more than you. Rhetoric no, realistic yes.
This is NT talking about his RM Pension, and how much it will mean to him when he retires :cry

Everyone can opt-out and the option has been there for years. I just happened to stumble across one before I joined RM and as I won't be working no I won't be contributing back into a pension I didn't pay into in the first place . Given the sheer volume of pensions wiped out over the years, i don't see why everyone else should carry the can on the RM pension either if as some seem to believe, the deficit was due to the pension holiday. How right T-man is. Same old replies.

Come on people, if you don't know what he's up to by now, you never will :wink:

Nice to know I'm being talked about but misdirected I fear. Why is it that whenever things look like they're not going to plan, it ends up an infight on here. Save your energies, this is going to be a rough year for a lot of us. My leaving certainly doesn't mean I don't care about my colleagues. Besides, we're all in the same darts team.

Is that rhetoric or reality NT :wink:

"Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!" - Walter Scott

I like the following quote it may be idealistic and full off rhetoric but what the hell :cool

"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death." - Thomas Paine

Come on NT let some hope back into your heart :pray

Did anyone here 5 live at 2pmish. A pps for the Government (Business I think) tried not to disagree with policy of part privatisation but did say that she thought their could be a lot better options. Just caught the end of it but she did say she would not like to think she could vote against the Government.

Apparently there are rumours that up to 8 PPS may revolt - 1 did at the start and resigned from his position. IIRC it was Pat McFaddens PPS.
