From the agreement....
All delivery revisions will be planned on the basis of no use of private cars. Private cars on delivery will cease upon the deployment of a Delivery Methods revision in a unit.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

If the D2D agreement comes in immediatley then so should all other parts of the deal, it's no good RM cherry picking only the bits they want and ignoring the bits they don't want to do.

I need to get real :hmmmm maybe you need to look at some of my postings, anyway, the agreement plainly states that RM can't just ignore what they don't like and the deal will be overseen by ACAS.

PS. I'm a no voter because I know RM 'managers' will just do what their budget dictates but we really need to overwhelm ACAS with all the times that RM breaks the agreement.

this agreement (in theory) gives the local union reps more power to sort out just these kind of problems. But they have no power at all if they don't get the support of their members so now we really must pull together and stand strong, don't let the managers bully you.

They're as 'banned' as they were last time. I.E people will still use them and management will turn a blind eye as it's helping out the drivers.

This is where we've been mugged over,they're not going to start the ban straight away as the place would fall apart.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
