Yes you can, but get independent advice before taking it any further. You should be able to take it through either channel which is why I suggest getting advice, RM and the CWU will inevitably be involved if you make it official .

Am I the only one that thinks work place bullying is a serious matter?

krussel hit the nail on the head though...

I agree some people can be quite dismissive which is sad when they dont really know the situation this person is in. Who knows maybe this bully is a big 6'5 ex bouncer or something and the thread starter has a family of 6 to feed so cant just walk out? The guy obviously needs some help dont think sarcastic comments are really the response he needs!

:shock: No sarcasm here, our long standing Union rep was just the same, if you can, have a word in his shelllike, ------may make you feel uncomfortable, and may even try and cause you some problems--- but one way or another, your standing up to him will end it ! And if he is bullying lots of others at the same time, get together, some of these reps (Sorry to thr good ones!) think they are Management. A bully is a bully. Good luck!

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.
