Full report: second day of Somerset postal strike

Postal workers in part of Somerset are on strike for a second day after talks with bosses broke down. Managers have now been drafted in to deliver post.

But the Communication Workers' Union says only half the post will make it through letter boxes - as managers don't have enough local knowledge. Royal Mail say they hope the dispute's issues can be resolved.

The manager pushing the trolley @ 27sec. looks like he works out at greggs. Jacamo must be doing a roaring trade.
