Every now and again a van drives past with its windows blacked out with pages of today's Evening Standard. 'Thats the scab van' one of the stewards tells me. Managers here had told staff that transport would be provided from the local stations so they would not have to walk through the picket lines. The strikers are fairly well convinced that the van is empty and just being driven past on a regular basis to lower morale. They think this because the timing of the drive bys is just not consistant with how long it would take to pick scab labour up from the nearby station. Walking back to Vauxhall we see the afformentioned van parked up by garage. The driver is reading the paper and the seats behind are empty. He drives off when he sees us filming through the gaps in the windows. We phone the pickets to tell them they were right. Another failed attempt at spin by desparate Royal Mail bosses who are now realising that they have a real fight on their hands.

How f*****g sad is that. The steps they will go.
