Royal Mail Admit There Is No Competition

[Wild Cat]

Interesting reading a response in the courier yesterday from head of regulatory strategy John Duncan who states "It makes no economic sense for the UK economy for the Royal Mail infrastructure to be replicated."

So there you have it in one sentence after years of mind numbing propaganda they have finally admitted that competition in deliveries never existed and never will after all as no other c*** is going to deliver a letter for 11 pence to the 38th floor of Crozier house or to the outer Leighton isles.

:lfo :cfo

WORK TIME LEARNING Next time manager's mention competition,or we have to compete or we have to (modernize) or be more felexible ask them why when nobody wants the final mile, not even TNT.

11p who does it for 11p? I thought the access price started at 14.1p? So DSA providers ship it to the IMC's and then we make 14.1p to do the final sort and the delivery. Is it me or is it the fact that PostCom set the access price to low the main problem and not the DSA providers?

I read in the local paper in Bristol that TNT will have orange "posties" on the street by early next year?

RM decided the price TNT through negotians would pay, at the time postcomm was hoping mad as both sides would not reveal any price details to postcomm.

I wonder which idiot negotiated that price and why royalmail is loosing so much money, probably both of these two wank*rs :lfo @ :cfo

[Edward Hunter]

Whoever negotiated that price should be sacked! More relevant, when is this up for review? Maybe then we can set a fairer price, one that doesnt mean we deliver at a loss! Mind you i suppose good old postcomm will say we already charge too much, and have to "modernize"some more.

Whoever negotiated that price should be sacked!

And in days gone by, they would have been. These days, incompetence is rewarded with massive bonus payments and in all probability a knighthood.
