I would guess that is the screw just trying to intimidate you into completing.

I have come across similar tactics and when people actually do cut off there's f**k all they can do.

If they do dock your pay surely it is illegal and the union can fight to get the money back.

Don't be bullied by these thugs stand together and cut off.

we always have stood together but that didn't stop them a couple of months ago stopping half the office's pay for cutting off. The union had to pay us back and are still fighting this in court to get their money back from Royal Mail. So we know they can and will stop our pay if they feel like it. So support us,

There are no national agreements any more, RM are doing what they like to bring in flexibility.

Our national leadership are standing by and watching union members being stripped of their dignity, ferfuxake this is 2007 not 1807.

Fight back against the bastards. The only weapon we have is the withdrawal of labour and we should withdraw it now.

More power to the workers in London and Liverpool.

I send solidarity to Streatham & Liverpool.

In the office i work in we had a wild cat strike last year after seeing a colleague reduced to tears after two bulling dums had interviewed him regarding attendance. They had also tried to bully all members of staff in some way.
When we went back we suffered all this crap about sticking your hand up for the toilet (some of us just went to the toilet as usual). We had managers patrolling aisle's one manager patrolling 3 of us in the part of the office i then worked at. We had one manager logging in what time you got back, he tried to get about 5 of us to go back out delivering when we got back 10 minutes before end time, we didn't. They then flooded the place with managers from all over the country (all staying in the local hotel, which aint cheap) + foreign casuals & still couldn't clear the mail without our co-operation. They walked a york full of drinks & sweets in & told us these are not for you, but managers & casuals. Managers will lie & twist things to get you to do more, diaries it all with witnesses.

The good news is before we went back we had a manager moved & now the other one has left.

anyone with half a brain would support you in a case like yours . . . . to refuse to pay someone because they've been given too much to do in the time they have is just f***ing ridiculous . . . . .I'm not a fan of unofficial IA but even I can see that sometimes you just have to stand up for what's right . . . Streatham office you have my full support and I would hope that of many others too :Applause :Applause :Applause
