Royal mail CANNOT BE TRUSTED we all as a union and a workforce should have a say in the way we work not be dictated to by greedy managers and corrupt politicians any deal which delays the outcome of the most important talks for the very future of the service/business of the royal mail is not welcomed by the staff and customers of this nation!. FOR A DEAL TOO WORK NEEDS BOTH PARTIES TO PARTICIPATE OF WHICH ROYAL MAIL DID NOT AFTER THE 2007 PAY AND MODERNISATION AGREEMENT AT THE TUC!.

A good point and we dont want a repeat of 2007 :no no

But this has to end somewhere and hopefully this maybe a start, or at least a step. :pray

Eddie sorry it was in fun we have lost a lot less but im in tottal agreement with you ! we should not be sold down the road by the exec after what a lot of you guys have fought for if that happens and crozier follows his secret plan then bassically what the exec are doing is signing up to there own demise our mail centre over the last few days of IA have had 5 people across all shifts come in thats out of a totall of some 600 staff so obviouslly thats 25% of us :left: but as always RM tell the truth !!
