UK Postal Workers Continue to Self Destruct

The more strikes, the more companies abandon Royal Mail. Why do unions insist on destroying their own employers? Particularly in a recession.

 

MONEY. They don't give a toss about service. They'll fight for more and more money...and strike more often. When RM is broken they'll have their grubby little hands out for the most redundancy packages they can get.

 

Privatise it.

 

I dislike the Royal Mail. What stingy, money-grabbing layabouts they are. Not that we have much better alternative!

 

That's the big issue. They don't want to...

Of course. Unions never want their industry privatised.

 

Because their employers insist on striking to save money - and they insist on busting the union.

It only makes sense that since capital has legal protection, labour does too.

 

Yes! And employers are concerned with...bengal tigers?

 

Bad service people stop using the service. Employers lose money money is the bottom line.

 

Employers striking? Surely employees!

 

First rational thing you've said in a while.

 

When did you become so combative against me.
The bitchiness doesn't suite you.

 

Well they've gone ahead and done it.

I was just in South Africa, a country being strangled by unions despite unemployment rates a multiple of what they are in the UK.

 

All because of the unions...
