post office are on all out strike from 3rd May.
Can't see that having much effect, just about all post offices locally are in convenience stores, AFAIK staff by each stores own staff
CWU are saying there will be no collections from the sub-post offices though, not quite sure how that's enforced though when it involves Royal Mail staff.

It means no deliveries or collections of 'cash' by their security bods in the armoured vans - badly worded bulletin.
and there will be no cash deliveries or collections from the 11,500 sub-post offices around the nation either

just seen link from twitter, an MP asking about renationalisation and an inflation proof pay rise for RM staff as shareholders have received 1.7 BILLION in dividends since privatisation. :shock:

The speech isn't going to go far. It's reassuring that the issue is getting attention of MPs but in my opinion Royal Mail will ignore the calls and carry on playing their game. Individual MP is way to little to get it even broadly recognized within parliament. We are in for a long race. We should vote out anything below the inflation or if the offer has too much strings. Walk out if needs to be.

Yep. And it goes to show that despite all our moans on here about money to the shareholders and them being more important than us, we’re all happy to take the dividends when they slide into our accounts.

Its easy to bash the union but as number one said some resistance is better than none at all I've worked in places with no union and the company's WILL get away with the absolute bare minimum.
Same here I think this guy's haven't work without union yet

Dividends on shares are not the same as a pay rise ask Simon he knows. For the record I'm not a shareholder anymore got out at £6 a share when I saw the clusterf**k they were planning with every office to have a revision. Money in the bank is better than pretend money in a company that cares little for its greatest asset...it's people.

No doubt we'll be offered 1%, backdated for 3 months, with more strings than a frayed string vest, and folk will accept it due to backpay! :arrrghhh

Well the latest Facebook update from uncle Terry doesn’t sound promising. Seems like he’s finally realised the business has been stringing the union along, only taken him a couple of years to twig on. Big trouble ahead.
