What proportion think
( a ) yes, jobs will be lost if we strike,
( b ) no, jobs will be lost whether we strike or not,
( c ) no, jobs will be lost but the job's too much now so thanks for the impending redundancy ?

Heard Moya was in Battersea SW11 today. Heard that someone asked her a question about working for Easy Jet. She denied it, said it was a rumour.

Can anyone who was at that meeting confirm this ?. .

You would be really really stupid not to back the union, If we go against them we are more screwed than we think no matter what you think about the union.

I'd be amazed if she did as the Union have put out an LTB on it, and Royal Mail made a press release on the subject, which they have to do by law.

Also "The Times", the FT and LSE have all run stories on it.

B would be my answer. But more jobs will go if we lose buisiness which strikes will inevitably do. We are a private company and profit has to be top of the list whether we like it or not!

If the company is run well we should be gaining jobs as we grow. If they carry on in the same direction then jobs will go strike or no strike. So its a vote of no confidence in our leadership from me.

Got a message on PDA today about Industrial action being welcomed by the competition as companies are planning now for Black Friday & Xmas deliveries..blah....blah

Well RM have had all year to get some of the issues resolved, and now blame us for putting company business at risk.

Bring on the strike ASAP , it's do or die time folks - either stand up to RM or spend the rest of your life on your knees.
