Any talks planned ?

Post by chickenwittle »

Or are we just going to continue slagging each other off on social media .The only way this is going to get resolved is by getting around a table.

There is little point in talking until at least one side indicates that they have something new to say.

I think the only talks ST will be having are with his family and about how to spend all their squillions of quid.

Plastic surgery would be of benefit to him so we cannot recognize him and he is not that photogenic and could do with a new wardrobe new specs and lessons in humanity and humility how did this guy get the job in the first place?

Royal Mail don't want talks, they want to sell and break it up. Probably want owner drivers and will pay them £9.50 an hour.

Only things that stops this is the government or Royal Mail themselves - when they realise it's not going to work.

So we might as well all give up now if that’s the case , talking is the only way this gets resolved and the union need to be pushing strongly for that rather than posting picket line dancing and postman pat costumes.

You dont know what they are doing behind the scenes do you?
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

Behind the scenes is not good enough, if no news is coming out people are going to start drifting back to work. They need to tell us what is going on

It’s going on too long without any sign of resolution. Neither side seems to be showing much interest in having talks. I think the takeover nonsense has hardened the unions stance if anything.
