Who f***ing voted yes then, cos I do not know of one office that did, here in the south east.

Unless they all lied and are waiting on the blood money in their xmas pay packet?

Will Royal mail reject the result as 46000 didn't vote?

Post by stephen500 »

Surely Rm will reject the result as unrepresentive of the whole workforce.
160,000 posties...
Only 51000 vote in favour?

I remember Rm stating that only so many posties voted for the strike :hmmmm

I'm not being paranoid but something is amiss here.

From Hayes and Ward ufcking up the strikes and going to court and accepting the (original) offer on the same day
The huge number of people who stated that they were voting against
The huge number of "un-returned" ballots
The Yes vote - in particular the margin - goes completely against the picture that was painted

My resignation will be in effect as of the 2nd January. I'd resign immediately but I can't face the 2 weeks at home around christmas when the kids are off school....

F*ck Hayes and Ward and Crozier and Leighton...I hope they all die in car crashes when they've finished thier circle jerk.

F*ck anyone who voted YES.

My sincere commiserations to ALL who voted against.

This is the end of the job as it was and the end of RM as it should be.

Sorry, but it's been a stitch up from the start. RM, the union and the government are all in one anothers' pockets.

Will people please stop calling Yes voters by abusive names. There are plenty on here who quite openly stated they would vote yes. I voted No and now I have to accept the deal as unfortunately does every other NO voter. I appreciate some people are as angry as I am disappointed

Ok complain about the deal but don't use this site to abuse the other side.

Any more abusive post will be deleted - be Grown Up and have a debate not a slanging match

Perhaps not it is a valid question - one that we can't answer. If the vote had been the other way many Yes voters may have been asking the same question.

[b]THE END[/b]

Post by che-guevara »

Dearly beloved:
We are gathered here today to say farewell to our colleague THE CWU.
:cry
Long have we served & fought together against the oppressors known to us all as the infidels.
:lfo :cfo
The battle, though long fought, was nearly won, but for the voting beliefs of 51,000, who went to the front line on 8 occasions, fighting what they believed to be the good fight, only, in their naivety, said YES at a time they needed to be strong, to take the fight to the next level & now we must all mourn the loss of alife we once knew, for the ened is in sight.
The long battle has infected the infidel & soon their demise will be for all to see, as the battle lost leaves its scars on those still with fight left in them, we must gather the troops & plunge the sword of despair deep into the heart of the infidel, show them we will not lay down & die like the 51,000 before us, but will fight them to the death.
We can not let them walk over our status & beliefs, they shall not steal our pensions or our lives.


To fight the good fight we must first

Get the Government to repay the £3.1 bn they our pension pot.

Do the job properly
no cars on delivery
no overweight pouches
no starting before your time
no to skipping meal reliefs

If we all stick together they will not grind us down

I voted no

I will vote no on the pension propoals

I will Vote against any D2D agreement

I WILL NOT LAY DOWN & LET THE B**STARDS WALK ALL OVER ME - PERIOD

ITS OUR ROYAL MAIL. LETS FIGHT TO SAVE IT
