Both agreements have now been endorsed by the membership. We would like to place on record our thanks to all representatives and members who have supported the Union throughout the dispute.
It is now important we all concentrate on delivering the agreements and dealing with the other major challenges facing the Union’s membership.
We will be contacting Royal Mail asking them to ensure the pay increases, lump sum and back pay are incorporated into pay before Christmas.
Could all Branches please ensure the ballot results are circulated to every workplace and brought to the attention of the membership as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely

I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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. My BFF Clash The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
This is a s**t deal! If whats being said, that it is a yes vote. We better all head to Tescos and HOPE that we get jobs there! Cause this job is f****d! If I get my hands on those crooked union reps or royal mail management bastards, there all dead I tell you! :lfo :cfo
AS IM AM WRITING THIS UPTO 11 REPLIES WERE RECIEVED AND 300+ CLICKED ONTO VIEW. ONLY 11 REPLIES THE REST MUST BE HAPPY WITH THE YES VOTE AND PROBABLY VOTED YES. THEY JUST COME ON HERE TO STIR s**t OR TO SPREAD GOSSIP AT WORK. :lfo :cfo ARE DRINKING CHAMPAGNE RIGHT NOW.....IV HAD MY RANT
