i like most posties in our division have been treated like crap since July so we should wait until the agreement is released tomorrow and then comment.
i for one am sure that Bob Gibson has not sold us down the river

Royal Mail managing director Mark Higson said he now looked forward "to positive and constructive discussions on the next stage of Royal Mail's modernisation plan".

The CWU also confirmed that it was not now pressing ahead with its legal challenge to the Royal Mail over its policy of employing temporary workers to deal with the postal backlog.

Xmas is a real catch 22. Yes it's our bargaining power , but it's also the time when we could lose the public completely.

Its going to take time and if RM try and move things without agreement then strikes will be called again.

The problem as I see it is, RM won't try and move things until AFTER DECEMBER 24th!!!!!

Does this mean that CWU now "NOT" taking RM to High Court tomorrow, re 30,000 "illegal" workers being taken on?
They said that this would still go ahead, with or without strikes, I think? Or maybe I'm wrong...again.

If they stop the High Court action, does this mean that the 30,000 RM wanted are still needed, as they did say it was "Nothing to do with strike", didn't they?
We'll see...
