CWUTV spoke to CWU Deputy General Secretary Postal, Dave Ward, during his tour of the country to discuss the proposed negotiators' agreement. The agreement was reached with Royal Mail in December 2013 and now the CWU are campaigning to discuss, and raise awareness of this groundbreaking, landmark deal.

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.

Not only several reminders of it being a "ground-breaking" deal :Very Happy but also a "landmark deal" :Very Happy and "an agreement for the future" :Very Happy yet despite "very extensive protections" :Very Happy and "obviously there are good managers out there" :Very Happy Dave admits that "some people will be a bit sceptical" :crazy:
- and has anyone else noticed, at about 12 minutes 45 seconds, the interviewer smirking as Dave's comments are presumably so farcical that she can't keep a straight face. :shock:

what a load of s**t , ground breaking more like f***ing back breaking , nothing mentioned about the delivery side of it which was one of the non agreement points , and at the end pleasure vote yes :left:

well i voted no today. and the rep says the branch are coming on monday to try and sell us the deal. alas however i feel it WILL be voted in because of the money side of the deal is blinding people to the reality of it. after all, as i have said on here many times before, the last pile of garbage was voted in, even though it was for d.o. staff to accept unlimited d2ds and almost 5hr delivery spans. not many of us voted for that, but its a reality.
