Royal Mail group ltd.

Contrary to popular bullshi*, we haven't been taken over by TNT or anyone else and hence our wages won't suddenly drop to minimum wage.

As far as privatisation goes, we've got the lesser of the evils.,

No one - it was an IPO not a Buy Out or take over. That might happen at some point but trying to guess who it is, or who its likely to be is like trying to pick the winning numbers on the lottery.

Does it really matter who we work for. Surely it's more important If you get paid on time.
