Thanks Lovejoy, I can't believe they've managed to drag it out all week :evil/mad
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

I've lost count of the number of times "this has been it".

Tomorrow lunch time there will probably be yet another excuse for delay because the network changes begin on the 22nd.

Just glad LJ has at least given some insight as to what's going on.

Dig those warm coats and BBQs out again . . . . . . . I can't see this being a happy ending, just yet . . . . . if this is the case I will happily fight on, as before . . . . . but will we all ?

lovejoy wrote:Talks between the union and Royal Mail were held today at the TUC. Those talks have continued onto this evening and will continue tomorrow.

A Full PEC has been called for 12pm tommorow

I think it is likely that Royal Mail have simply said the position reached last Friday stands.

The PEC have rejected this now Royal Mail have agreed to proper talks tonight/tom and final document will be put before PEC at midday tom. At least we'll know once and for all where we are tom afternoon / eve!

A further report will be made tomorrow.
And another week goes by....If RM said fridays position stands and PEC rejected it surely next step should be strike dates? What`s to discuss? Surely RM are going to say tomorrow what they said today, fridays position stands, and are just going to 'explain the offer' etc.
Thanks again for the info Lovejoy. Still nothing on CWU website, now that`s an absolute disgrace.

If we reject the deal I would imagine any public sympathy we had will quickly evaporate! whatever happens the union officials that agreed a deal last week should tender their resignations.Its obvious the terms were not acceptable!

If for some reason the membership havnt learnt by now what R.M. ARE UP TO i dont know what will persuade them. methinks this is a fight to the finish.
