SO WHO IS TO BLAME FOR OUR CURRENT SITUATION

Post by TrueBlueTerrier »

Right we are in the middle of a 3 week series of strikes, and the question I would like everyone to consider is

Who - in your opinion is most to blame for the current situation. I have tried to cover all choices.[/b]

Thats a hard question TBT, Postcon, and Leighton and Crozier have made massive contributions towards the s**t were in now but ultimatly for me its been the goverment, because the others wouldnt have existed without the goverment recruiting them, all this because Blair got his hand smacked when he tried to privatise RM...UNITY IS STRENGTH.

And in charge of the party which appointed Leighton and Crozier!
The Industrial Workers of the World. The union whose members never scab!

It's the EU and with a lot of help from the Government.
You can't say dum and dumber.
But without Blairs lot agreeing to the EU s**t,we wouldn't be in this mess.
Ok narrowing it down it's Labours fault,says a lot dont it!!

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.

strike breakers are still postal workers are they not?? they are the kind of selfish short minded people that dig the holes which we are now trying to get out of whilst they jog off and suck up to the very people that repress them.And the cwu reps albeit with thier hands tied allow them to do this..harsh but true i'm afraid

Govt. obviously,the New Tory admin. is R.M.'s sole shareholder. Majority shareholders have the power to call an e.g.m. and sack the board and chairman if they disagree with their decisions. Since we are now in a competetive market, can any1 tell me if they know of any other chair/ceo that has managed to avoid the sack after loosing 40% of its revenue in three years?
