RMCtv : Management brief-doing over The CWU

[enskied]

Our Managers are so happy that they have no reason to Strike. It's the land of milk and if you're a gaffer.

You get paid a huge lump sum to swallow it all. With Unison backing.

Reap what you sow .

The post has disappeared on Workplace!

It's hard to believe somebody actually thought it was a good idea to post that slide on Workplace.

Their IQ obviously wasn’t very high.

Staged photos or videos mean absolutely nothing. Most dictators publish them when they're in the sh**. Then they ramp up the threats , blame everybody else for anything they can think of and then it all comes crashing down.

If you're reading this Si, do us all a favour and do something constructive instead of pussy-footing around.

According to Ward he has been insider trading, having secret talks about breaking up the company and derecognising the CWU.
How much more constructive do you want him to be? There are only so many hours in the day.

Insider trading would usually involve buying shares just before you are going to announce good news driving the share price up (then usually quickly selling to crystallise a profit) or, alternatively selling just before announcing bad news which will drive the share price down, sometimes then rebuying.

If Dave Ward really believes that Simon has been doing this then he'd better have some really good evidence to back that up or else we need someone who actually knows what he is doing running our union.

I'm not in any way forming an opinion on whether this has occurred or not. I do not believe it has actually.
I just want to say though that you are not factually correct about insider trading only happening before good news makes the share price go up. It can often be the other way around, in that the inside trader wishes the share price to fall. Shorting a share price these days is very easy to do on various platforms such as IG Index, or selling a Put option, or shorting a share with a contract for difference (relatively technical but not that hard to do).
Again I stress I don't believe this has occurred but just correcting your understanding. Significant money can be made from shares falling.

Doing over the CWU you mean the workers because we are the CWU so this is your plan but we have not even started yet and you come up with jingoistic team building bull crap like that! So we all know how you failed in test and trace with your app that was so crap people needed to isolate even though they never came into contact with anyone because they were isolating already. Well if you can lose £37 billion in six months a million pounds a day is good going for a failed CEO who cannot manage even his own public relations team in this case.

What’s that smell??? Ah I know. It’s desperation

[CRIBMAD]

What a back slapping exercise that would have been, you know for sure that any negative voices would have been 'cancelled'.

Thompson and his cronies are not fit to run any business, they fail to see the huge disconnect they have caused between his fantasy management away days, and the real world of a thoroughly pi**ed off workforce due to his lack of management skills, and bullying behaviour.

We need to strike during christmas pressure for a full week with a work to rule ballot result in place for the days following strike days so its carnage. This will make an impact more than single days here and there, We need to have maximum impact and send a message to the shareholders that this ass oil and his cronies are unfit for purpose, then they might vote the sc....um out!

make sure xmas eve is a strike day too , at least we get something good out of it !

I suggest that you read all of my post (clue - go past the word "or") before telling me I'm wrong.

And the term "shorting" refers to short selling. That is the practice of selling shares (shortly) before you have actually bought them, anticipating that the price will drop in the intervening period so that you come out in profit. As Simon already owns several hundred thousand pounds worth of shares then that is not what he is doing.
