Wonder what would have happened had the shoe been on the other foot,and the postie had done this to their manager? They wouldnt have got away with it,so why should they?

My advice is to write to the Board member responsible for bullying and harassment and also to the area union rep.

Only if the threat is immediate, if they tell you they're going to punch you on the face next Tuesday or introduce a caveat like "if you talk to me again I'll punch you in the face" it isn't a police matter.
Strange...but true.

But surely if they say they are going to punch you next Tuesday and do punch you next Tuesday, then that is malice aforethought?

Best bet is to ring the bullying hotline and NAME name's - and you don't even have to give your name. Don't bother with grievances as it seems obvious that you're DOM is ignoring them and your rep isn't that interested either. A quick phone call is most convenient without having to put pen to paper, it gets it off your chest, is confidential, and most importantly because it gets recorded from outside your office it gets LOGGED. Royal Mail do take bullying and harassment very seriously and from what you said this manager needs reporting ASAP.
