Actually lads you can help out - as Posties my DO is for the 4th time 100% out no one went in ------ except one postman who sometimes manages. He is still a CWU member and asked the DOM if they needed him in today.

So can we count ourselves as 100% solid or are we now 1 Scab and 300 Out. :pray :pray

Same three strike breakers went in today. One new guy (started this week) went in. Too early to tell if he'll come out. Having said that, he has worked for RM before.( I find it hard to believe he's come back!!!) So we'll wait and see. Good support on picket today. Well done and thanks very much to all strikers at BS11!!!
:Applause :Applause :Applause :Applause :Applause




PS. All three strike breakers are non-union members, which kinda makes it difficult to expel them, still, here's hoping the union will refuse to re-instate them! :whistle :whistle

All out in our office except the Three Stooges who think they manage the place.
Support from the Permanent Staff at the TA Centre. The RQMS sent pots of coffee and tea over for the pickets, let us use the facilities. A TGWU taxi driver and a student joined the picket line. The public have been great!
The Industrial Workers of the World. The union whose members never scab!

Frankie - having seen the pictures of the picket line and been on it, I wouldn't cross it either if I were a member of the public as i know you and R would probably be quite a handful!!

We were almost 100% today, turns out we have one scab somewhere but don't want to say too much about it.

He'll learn.

Sevenoaks delivery office 100% scab free . . . . . . best attendance yet on the picket line with a bbq and a stereo playing songs like "you can't touch me I'm part of the union" very loud . . . . . . . . several members went along the high street and gave out all the leaflets we had (several hundred) . . . . . . . a total of 10 managers came to us, some of which we've never seen before, and we watched them wandering around the town holding specials and looking like lost puppies, took them all morning to do what 2 of us do in an hour
