Not only that but they can hire 35000 workers at a whim yet have been axing staff left right and center this sounds like union busting at all costs!. I only hope the good people of the uk can see that the BONUS CULTURE of ROYALMAIL MANAGEMENT HAS LEAD TOO ALL THIS!. :cfo

It's a bit " Doctor Livingstone , I presume " there in Bristol :hmmmm :hmmmm , even allowing for multi - cultural Britain etc - firstly there's reports of Brazilian & Sri Lankian workers being bussed into London on Sunday with their interpreters who can't even read the English addresses on the mail and now this .

Sorry you can't tell me they've all come from the Job Centre in Bristol :hmmmm especially with the bit about the shuttle bus .

I'm surprised the Daily Mail printed that story which proves strings have been pulled - It stinks :no no :hmmmm - normally it's all immigrant crime waves , send 'em all back and hang single mothers in that paper :hmmmm :hmmmm

Somebody Email the paper over to the BNP , it'll send their cranks and knuckle draggers into orbit with rage :hmmmm :left:

IF TRUE, AND IM SAYING IF,now they are doing our jobs, for less, lets see how long before the posties start gettin angry.

Maybe the time will come,when this Nu Labour or next Tory government sack us all for striking, all these ready made replacements step right into the breach !!!!!!!

Thing is, is the story true, i had it texted to me today about parts of london SE5 SAT and SE1 SUNDAY,also W2 .


I know its only seen as a short term solution for now, but will this force old Billy Hayes into accepting some sub standard deal on behalf of us?

Dont say the sacking will never happen , look at the peterborough guys today!

Hmmmm :hmmmm CRB, security checks take on average 6 weeks to be completed provided that the applicant has a checkable history and full disclosure of identities etc....
Yet all these new workers have amazingly been cleared in a couple of hours/days :hmmmm
I smell Sh1te.
I know you think you know what you think I meant!

I would love for all those temps to do our jobs, the more the merrier. Can you imagine what sort of things would be going on? mail left all over the place, dumped in hedges, stolen cards etc - only then would the public appreciate what they have now and back us to the hilt.

I had heard they were being given sat navs so that the manager could keep on eye on them - but apparently they already have an electronic thingy on their ankle, but they'll have to be finished delivering by 8pm and won't be able to start before 7am :wink:

At the risks of digressing, one photo shows a guy clutching a ball made from old elastics bands.
It takes hours to make one of thos things!
I hope he can sort mail as well. :chuckle

Yeah, look what I can do? Elastic band ball!
You're hired.

Agree the more of these guys are employed the better - people will be finding mail EVERYWHERE except their door mat and we will look like the professionals we all are. Well most. OK, some. :wink:

i hope their all working in a scab wharehouse & the theft level go's through the roof, so we can show the royal fail up for this strike breaking action they've undertaken..

Imagine the missorts from these people !! :shock: the 1 thing this does show is just how desperate the royal fail are & how far they'll go in order to break our unity & resolve in this dispute...

Slave labour for slave wages comes to mind. A perfect example of what they have in mind for all of us if we let them :evil/mad
