I don't mind the term 'wildcat' especially but I suppose thinking about it it can have negative connotations. Still it shows a fignting spirit and may be could spread like wildfire under certain conditions!
But yes it should be emphapsised that the sort of democracy they've had in Liverpool with mass meeetings of 800 or more and people voting every day or two on how to take forward tge action is exemplary democracy and how a union should be run.
The tories made it illegal and came up with the whole bollox about postal ballots to delay the action, notification, outlawing of anything other than symbolic pickets, outlawing secondary picketing and other crap Labour have disgracefully kept on.
It's crap. Members in the branches should make the decisions based on our own democracy.
Full power to Liverpool (and Leeds if they're still out)

Well done Leeds & Liverpool,
this shows how much unrest and dispair there is by posties up and down the country,
we were told that RM would not pay us overtime to clear the backlog;they are not prepared to pay us for going on strike!
Managers are working night-shift;throwing walks in;making drivers take walks out and telling posties that there is no overtime on extended deliveries,
they are trying to nail us,financially, for taking strike action,
What do you think?
We need to show solidarity,we are all in it together!
Stand Free!
:lfo :cfo :lfo :cfo
