As someone said the lastest news on the BBC is that the talks are deadlocked.
But what i find interesting is how Royal mail with a carefull use of words can completly put a different spin on the truth.
Note this
He added: ''"In the last 24 hours we have handled 45% of the mail in our system''

Instresting point and might have me worried if Royal Mail had not sealed all its collection boxes!

my favourite quote has to be 'Rather than accept a solution, [CWU] continues to table unrealistic and unaffordable proposals'
so it's accept thier terms or nothing .accept the terms no negotiating.sounds like they havn't changed thier stance at all since day 1 :lfo :cfo
