100% Boston, Lincolnshire - two lonely managers locked inside before an early escape at noon....left us with the disgruntled customers as usual.

In our ofice of 26 staff, we had 4 non member strike breakers, 1 member scab [ and doing S.A] , 2 outside strike breakers and 1 manager go in to our office.
Had up 8 on the picket line, eating sausage, bacon and burger rolls.
Must'nt let the strike breakers grind us down. need keep the support up and the pressure on :cfo and :lfo . least we can hold our head up high, i will never back RM's plan by breaking the strikes.
We had 1 non member scab [ i hate this type of scab the worse for doing o/t] do S.A. collections yesterday afternoon.

Good. The new starters have signed up. A member of night staff who had crossed the picket lines in the past, has joined the union, and is now striking with us.

About 96% there are a few that always have and always will. but.

I'd take that to mean, that scab working for R.m delivered his mail.
Unless we are now upstreaming mailsort?

I meant, I had post delivered, with a TNT logo on which would have come via downstream access, plus a piece of mail with a mailsort logo on. This means whatever post made it's way through the system yesterday landed on my doormat this morning.
