Well surely "rolling strikes" has to be the better option by a country mile. I know its been mentioned by Martin Walsh there would be problems with picket lines as some D.O.s are inside of mail centres now. But surely we have the brains when planning this type of action to overcome these obstacles....we desperately need to win this dispute by whatever means neccessary or we are all f****d....the executive included.

Probably the easy way to deal with that is to have any DOs that are located within a MC site to have their strike days on the same day as the MC processing
