Yep ,but worth restating . This deal is the formal ratification of the end of your union. Your choice , independent union or management funded staff association? Make or break time

Hows it a pay cut for f/t and payrise for a/g's??? I'm p/t (32.5hrs) and stand to lose at least £20 per week on dtd's alone as I currently get £35 for 3 dtd per week at the moment and would only get around £15-£16 pro rata under the new agreement so I'm gonna lose more than a f/t person but at the end of the day we are all getting shafted once again by RM whether we are f/t or p/t so it's a massive NO from me!!!

money for nowt you say? Say that when your crappy £1000 & £400 bloodmoney pay offs are spent and they are throwing more dtd's at you than you can possibly handle in a week and when you have to work until 3pm on a Saturday also doing dtd's...people like you need to think about the long term not just the crappy bonuses they promise every time there's a new agreement!

He or she does not have to consider that, processing says it all, not DTD problems for them, just take the money and run, fook everyone else, money we were getting anyway i might point out. :so there

Old rope won't be doing D2Ds as he works in a Mail Centre, possibly one of the 50% that will be closing over the life span of this deal. I suppose if he votes yes and is then one of the 1st Non Volunteers for Redundancy, he won't be complaining as he has read and understood the offer in full. After all
Royal Mail and CWU confirm that the overarching objective is to deliver the transformation without recourse to compulsory redundancies.
does not quite rule out compulsory redundancy does it :shhhhh

No thanks from me

But it'll be voted in, our union people were saying it wasn't a great deal but was the best we
were going to get and it would give us a job for 3 years.
