We have heard different folks, yes it is all about delivery as it should be, the way we are treated, yes maybe a better pay deal, but no £300, no backdated pay offer, so I for 1 won't be accepting it

The pay increase the back pay isn't the important bit, how long are our terms/conditions guaranteed for that's the main thing.

BS, both RM and the CWU know that a deal without a lump sum or back pay will not be voted in.

If there was to be a statement it will be released just as Broadway is closing for the day to avoid any contact from the members.

When it came to calling off the strike i got a text message and email so the whole infrastructure is in place so no reason what so ever we can't be kept in the picture.

It is made pretty clear at the start of the talks that neither side will provide any updates while the talks are progressing.
I don't know why some people still expect a tweet every 5 minutes.
We are fortunate that Dingo does provide us with snippets of information but neither the CWU or RM are ever going to do that.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
