That's not "gloating", just telling it how it is
No you're telling us how you think it will be.
There's a lot of that going on on this forum.
People really should step back before posting and realise they're about to post a poorly educated guess (no disrespect there's none of us had a seat in a boardroom) at what might happen.

It might help if everyone put "I think" at the start of every post
That's all.

Because Simon wants the COMs to canvas us all, and get us pegged

Maybe the union needs Tee Pee back to pitch on our behalf.

All the participants are camp?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

What you see now is the FUTURE, and it won't change!
Of course it will.
The future isn't carved in stone even if you stick on your Caps lock to prove it, nobody says it will be a pretty future or an easy future but it will change because it always does.

Fatalism is a tool of the oppressor used to force submission by indifference and apathy.

What's the point?
The point is fighting and losing is not the same future as giving up and losing.
Where anywhere have I said that I am not on the side of the posties? Where anywhere have I said that the CWU should give in?

I am as against what the current CEO and Co. are up to just as much as you, I have good mates still in, and genuinely feel for the cr@p they are having to deal with every working day.

What I simply said was, that when Thompson has gone - either by falling or being pushed - any new CEO will come in and it will be much of the same again as they try to make a name for themselves.

That's not "gloating", just telling it how it is. Sorry if being realistic offends! Oh, and I've underlined "they" instead of capitals as that also offends :roll:
That's nothing new,it's privatisation and capitalism basically it's the west,the point is to fight back,to fight back signals that were not just gonna roll over, CEOs come and go and chip away at t&cs the point is to slow it down.

The lifting of the OT ban proves that it was only ever put in place as a punishment and not because they wanted to save money because if it was only to save money like they claimed, then it would still be in place
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

Was it ever in place ( maybe some places) but not overall.
