There's no question about it Billy Hayes and Dave Ward are on this website. They know what we think of them and what crap deal they got us. So why Billy and Dave do you not do anything about it and go back to Royal Mail for a better deal.

Get Real.
Let's Make a Deal is a television game show which originated in the United States and has since been produced in many countries throughout the world. The show is based around deals offered to members of the audience by the host. The contestants usually have to weigh the possibility of an offer being for a valuable prize, or an undesirable item, referred to as a "zonk".
In my humble opinion we are being sold a quality "zonk"

Your opinion whilst valid, doesnt have to be shared by everyone, similarly vice versa.

But to try to denigrate people with your 'Get real' quote is slightly annoying from a fellow comrade.

If CWU members do vote no, I expect the top brass to accept it and go back with our decision.

RM will either say what are the sticking points, (D2D loss of money, uncomradely treatment of P/T, no specified delivery span and longer Saturdays, closures of MC) and try to modify some or all of the sticking points or they will say no thanks.

Then we will have to decide our course, in the light of their inflexibility.

Absolutely right! :Applause :Applause :Applause Just because we waited 4 months for this agreement, does NOT mean we have to accept it!
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

because they have no plan b is not a reason to vote yes

the idea is you read through the agreement decide whether you wish to vote yes or no then you vote

I think the top people at the CWU need to remember that they represent us - we are the union

if we as a union decide to vote no then it is up to them to go back and get us a deal we will vote yes on!

It is no good saying there isn't another deal they have to do their job and say our members reject this offer

they work for US - we work for RM not the CWU

so if the vote is no they had better listen to their members because if they don't they won't have any left
