I think legally it is the final extension.
Tomorrow either brings a deal or industrial action.
Further talks that didn't lead to a deal would require a new ballot for IA.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Is B&H on the agenda?
Personally that is the biggest issue for me. It hasn't felt like the union have addressed this since they highlighted it.

Makes you wonder why they bothered mentioning it, that and the final extension, followed by another final extension, with the biggest communications march since 1971 on the 4th Nov which didn't happen, like the original decoupling of the pension followed by a ballot on it that never materialised. Headless chicken springs to mind.

I think it will be an ultimatum, either a deal by Wednesday or we will strike on the following Monday.

I personally think they will announce a strike. It can always be called off. Obviously there is no deal yet and unlikely to be one by tomorrow. If they don't call it we will run out of time. I'm hoping for a deal but won't hold my breath. If it doesn't address the problems on delivery I will vote against it anyway.

Royal Mail determine the timeline for events. They plan to detail the finer points of the new agreement to shareholders on Wednesday. :cuppa
