Come out the woodwork you branches voting yes

Post by geopip »

Lots of Branches have posted that they are calling for a no vote, but I haven't heard from many Branches saying they are calling for a yes vote. What are you worried about if you think the deal is good don't be ashamed come out of the woodwork and let us know. The Midlands is very quiet on the deal and considering the Coventry Mail Centre closure I am very surprised and of course London seem to voting for it?

To be honest our branch has not yet formalised its recommendation. But we are very spread out geographically.

Its not a case of Branches voting "YES".

I think people are going to vote how they see it from there own personal point of view.

Personally i think its a stinking deal and any branch that does recommend their members to vote yes are in for some serious ear ache when the changes are implemented.

south wales will be a big yes to accept.

the strike was supported but was patchy in some areas and was on the brink of total collapse in others !

I work at the Coventry office and although we have issues with the centre closing, they're different from the deal which most of us are OK with.

I'm surprised you say that the deal accepts RM business plan which then means we accept the Mail Centre closure plans? :confused

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.

See what I mean??? Anyone has an alternative view to your own and you won't accept it - well tough. I never said I was voting Yes (and I'm not) but most of us are. The question was asked, I answered. Why ask the damned question if you don't want to hear the answer????

We need all the support we can get in Coventry but striking won't help keep us open - we've done enough of that this year thanks - on top of the strikes over pay. The relocation isn't connected with the pay deal.

Certainly an "alternative view" since all agree the deal = business plan = MC closures. Try an alternative form of IA ,work really normaly that'll put the pressure on RM,they'll crumble before your determined onslaught an all your jobs will be saved. See what I mean?
