Royal Mail workers have voted to boycott competitors' mail

Post by Ossie From Preston »

Royal Mail workers have voted to boycott competitors' mail and strongly oppose privatisation of the company, the Communication Workers Union said today.

A CWU statement said the ballot had seen a 47% turnout and the boycott received 92% support.

In response to the question "Do you oppose the privatisation of Royal Mail?" some 96% of those polled voted yes.

“Today’s ballot result shows we have resounding support for all the union’s policies," said Billy Hayes, CWU general secretary.

"This is a strong message to take forward action in each area to improve the working lives of postal workers and protect the services and jobs which customers and communities value.”

@itvnews Please correct your story http://www.itv.com/news/update/2013-06- ... mpetitors/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; … it was 74% turn out not 47% - hope it was a typo.
