Yeah I saw it. Quite a fair report with the view of someone who is actually affected by 'modernisation'.
Makes a change. :Applause

The steps they went to, to hide his identity by even blanking out car regs good on you itv..

ITV report.

Watched it seemed to be factual for a change, good :nana
Mind you the guy was going on about not getting job and finish anymore BUT what about being asked to go over your full paid time because of the extra absorbtion workload ?

Maybe he isn't being asked to work over? My office isn't (at least for now). If you can't do the extra within time you don't take it out.

I have felt a shift in media reporting of the Royal Mail for some time. There is no way the company can get away from the effect that Post Office closures have had on the public, in particular the elderly, no matter how they spin the issue and recent survey results do not show Royal mail in a good light, especially given the the promises thay made over this issue.

As such it is only going to take one probing journalist to peel away the layer of propoganda to see the scandal that lies beneath. Then the brown stuff may just hit the fan.

Just watched Jeff Randall....the guy from chamber of commerce is blaming us...the union...?f***ing IDIOT....!!! Just because we're a public service we've just to roll over and get any s**t that comes our way....? NO...not us,we've got a workforce pushed to the limit and willing to stand up to our oppressor's...!!We want to deliver a decent, regular and early service for the public,business's....etc But until WE EDUCATE the public(via whatever means necessary) they can only make their minds up over the drivel that comes from RM.
