Depending where your model week was set - but a bulging docket, especially at this time of year, is not a sign of a failed revision.
what about the previous 4 months while its been implimented then?

if you do the job properly it doesnt work. but of course if you run around, carry 2 bags, come in early and dont take your break. you will make an hour :crazy:

I think it isn't necessarily to us.
I think it definitely is to Royal Mail and PricewaterhouseCoopers.
I think right from the start Royal Mail's idea of flexing up didn't involve any docket.
It's certainly how their managers have tried to implement it. :cuppa
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

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.

Change the record , we have had almost half of the revisions in London. But apart from a couple of offices which have or are being addressed none have been failures. We have 37 to do in South London out of the 48 offices , we have 4 out of 18 in East London to do , all the west London w2-14 have had revisions , 9 out of the 22 offices in North London have had revisions , 4 out of the 11 offices in North West have had revisions. W1 and EC1-4 have had revisions with only WC remaining but due to the relocation next year to the mount this will only take place once relocated.

So 52 revisions have taken place in London out of 114 offices.

We have withdrawn twice from revisions, once on the issue that fixed terms contracts should get a permanent job on the introduction of the revision and this stance led thus far to over an 100 fixed term contact staff getting a permanent job.

The second was over start times and 100 BSI etc and we now have a joint statement.

Dvbuk I and the rest of London could not really give a damm if you are jealous , angry or just being petty with your constant put downs on London. We will continue to ensure that London offices get the best deal they can and the support they need during transformation and if we need to withdraw again or ballot or use another tactic then we will.

If other areas were as organised they could do the same , we would not let indivdual offices gets stitched up and we certainly would not moan about an area who was tough and organised . Over to you !

Well dingo, I was asking what the overall revision percentage was, not just London, but considering there has been LESS than 50% of your revisions having taken place I think the point is made considering the length of time it took for you to become involved in the "deal of the century" and really it shouldn't be an us and them but just a united union front to enable fair and just revisions for all and not those with political muscle in union circles. I have to ask whose responsibility it is for toughness and organisation? We have had this point many times, you have an area of almost 100% full timers with a massive proportion of union members.................but we aren't all in your gang..........the union take all our money in equal part but it would appear to be money poorly spent when some are better supported than others.

The definition of tough and organised at office level is an office that sticks together and protects every member,especially the weak.

The definition of tough and organised at area level is an area that sticks together and protects every office,especially the weak.

The definition of tough and organised at divisional level is a division that sticks together and protects every area,especially the weak.

And then for some strange reason the definition changes,the definition of our union at national level is a federal rat's nest of bitching,back biting and childish one-upmanship.
Out of the window goes the principle of an injury to one and in comes i'm all right jack,we'll fight our own battles and anyone who criticises us is just jealous.

When sitting in a divisional rep's meeting does the fact that some areas and even whole divisions are letting their members down ever come up in conversation?
Does anyone hold their hands up and admit they could do better or does the default position of blaming the members still hold the field?

It's fine to blame the members,eventually there will be so few in some areas the rep's can phone them up and blame them personally.

Dvbuk you were having a dig at London again , don't moan and groan if some of the union is standing up for the members. Demand yours do likewise.

Fish we have 17 PEC members and 5 national offices and we have 1500 delivery offices , we have 50 mail centres , 10 RDCs ,we have over 20 vocs , we have loads of post offices and we have cit units so you want those furtherest away from the issues to reprsent you ?


Fact is that we have a local rep structure , no other union has this in every workplace who negotiate and consult on all issues , we have a branch structure who get thousands of pounds per month to reprsent the members within their branch , you have an area rep structure , you have 18 Divisonal reps and 9 substitutes , you have 10 regional secretaries , you have parcel force regional officers you have ROMEC reps , you regional counters reps.

Those are the people who should be organising in the offices. In 2009 London said if any of our offices were attacked we would all ballot and we did and took 20 days of action it's called a union for a reason , we don't wait for headquarters as they are only as strong as the weakest link and I know as after the first day of the national strike action there were loads of offices ready to put up the white flag.

You can always catch people out in the union , loads call for a strike when they know it's never going to happen ', some of those people when we are in a strike demand we surrender.

I don't have anything to prove or justify my role is reprsent the members in London and I will continue to do that ! If you don't like that we stand together then your not a trade unionist.

i think you guys should cut Dingo some slack.i wish the whole of the CWU UK was as strong as London CWU, in fact i wished every working person in the UK was a member of a Union.
however , many people are not wired up like me ,Dingo , Fishtank etc and have no class consciousness , solidarity or education whatsoever. we see them everyday at our coalface, running around taking their cars out , forgoing their breaks etc helping out with WCM just so they can get a cushy number etc etc - the iam alright jacks of life.
the union has many faults and has made many bad decisions but it operates within a Capitalist system that encourages individuality because that benefits the drivers of the said system. never in the history of mankind has there been more wealth been created yet today we have the poorest people bailing out the rich,important people linning their own pockets etc etc. education is the key, many people just kick back against the rotten system because the dont see any alternative.
trade unionism and education for me is the first small step towards creating a fairer, equal society.
"why should it just be the bankers, politicians and the idle rich who get all the best things ? we demand a standard of living for our members that enables them to share in the fine wines and times that the likes of Cameron and his Eton buddies take for granted " - the late great Bob Crow RIP.

Well believe it or not dingo I am not a lone voice in thinking that London have an unfair advantage for many reasons. Like I've said before try muscling when you have a 50% part time structure with a 50% union membership. There seems to be an unconscionable amount of influence over union affairs particularly when it involves London..............however there is a whole world outside of London of which you appear to be totally ignorant of.

I don't really want to get involved in the polemics of trade unionism or education but I would just say that in my not inconsiderable lifetime and experience both are going backwards. If there was any strength in the argument that those two issues would in any way change the status of the poor/working class, then there hasn't been a lot of change in the over 50 years I have been a poor working class man.
