So far today we have had Realworker winding everybody up. Stupid comments and we have fallen for them.Now we have white van man bragging about his wages.I thought this site was about general topics that affect us.And we could without using bad language discuss them? I have learnt alot on here that i would never have learnt anywhere else. So can we stick to what this site is all about. Please.

Take heed in what some are saying,ignore the f***ers.
The place has gone mad lately and i'm chuffed,1500 posts in one day,over 1000 peeps visiting us,100's registering in the last few days.
Site records are being broken,no smashed,and with it the % of numnuts unfortunately go up as well.
We may have to sort out some extra MODS if it carries on as at times i'm speed reading the threads there's so many.
But we can all be MODS by ignoreing them.

Anyway while i'm looking around can you guys name and shame them in here and i'll have a look.
Also i'll make them a special smilie at the w/e just for them.
Post the smilie and that will be enough.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

yes well said postman, i dont mind if i read someones post who is against the strike and has genuine concerns about it as its upto them, but when you get the odd idiot on i think we all know as soon as we read a post whether its genuine or not just dont give it the satisfaction of an answer because thats what they obviously get off on just report it.
Keep up the good work everyone because this site is going places and well done to all involved in it, it is a valuable tool for the ordinary man/woman
WELL DONE :Applause

Comrades, i wish in a way to apologise for some of my comments. I admit some of my comments have included a race issue. As stated im not a rascist an work with many multicultural diverse, fantastic people in my office. I have stated though that a particular minority are breaking the strike an i also hold some right wing views of which disagree with hte socialist and respect views you all hold, please dont demonise me for my diversity as i dont for yours. I've made comments about superglueing postboxes and posting shite for the strike breakers to collect, this too may have been wrong and sent in jest. I've tried to not cross a certain line though, and upon reading realworkers comment "filthy immogrant workers" that line, well, no one can accept.
As ive stated, i apologise for any comments that may cause offence, though in respect, i dont deserve anti nazi picture thrown at me for my views when, clearly i am no nazi.
Apologies, mOOn71

Last night someone brought up the subject that the socialist party members were at their picket line helping out. In response i mentioned the BNP support the postal strike. (the bnp manifesto states british business should be protected from europe, an its these that cause some of our problems with deregulation, of which france an germany are dragging heals) I also stated that socialist an respect policy has pretty much an open door for immigration and YES I DO BELIEVE flooding the uk workmarket with unskilled labour ubdermines workers rights as we all compete for the same jobs. Yes, people are prepared to do our jobs for less.
I wont name names, but piss off rascist was one comment and followed by the usual hitler/azi pictures.
YES I AM A NATIONLIST SOCIALIST BELIEVING IN UK FIRST. YES I WISH THE BNP COULD STAND IN MY CONSTITUENCY, as they hold more view than the others to represent me.
NO IM NOT A RASCIST. YES I BELIEVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS SHOULD BE DEPORTED.
Like i say, the comments last night against me for my opposing views against the socialists an respect partys were unfair.
No one even wants to picket my office because we have to listen to a 10minute speech from a respect candidate. FACT.

Apologies again, just call me a nutter like last night.
And no, im not naming names.

I am a member of an "ethnic minority" holding a union position.I would never use race to strengthen an argument
on workers terms and conditions.
What's race got to do with the current dispute?
Our eastern european members at our office are our top people.They want information.
There is no point going on to everyone about "ips" and other abbreviations. Simplify things.Information is everything.
Newsletters on every frame.
Gate meetings at every opportunity.
Get a sense of what this is all about for christ's sake.
Have one clear argument.Stop going off on a tangent.
Some of us ethnic minority's were born here.We want UK first believe it or not.However as our great chief exec has shown.
It's all about the "money",and that has no colour believe it or not.We need Mr Brown to srutinise Royal Mail's board members contracts.
When these guys were employed,was it a quick fix appointment?
Colour was and never should be an issue.

For a start many of my reps support Respect, one stood as a candidate. We even contribute with branch funds!!!!!!!!!! The words "respect views you all hold" is general, so as "socialist". I say this in a context. I should have stated "everypolitical party". Generalisation, is of course wide. I accept that only a minority here support Respect views, more i guess are Socialist. Even more would be mainstream. To state "socialist and RESPECT VIEWS YOU ALL HOLD" was a bad statement.
