I do agree with unions going on strike for there members over job cuts etc, But my gripe about this, is that this could be the death nail in the coffin for the Royal Mail, there are now companies out there quite willingly prepared to take over.

The service is very poor, non delivery of mail is almost constant, mail delivered to the wrong door (within the last six months, l have complained over five times), we have 'foriegn' postman who haven't a clue, you post a FIRST class letter, and it takes a week to deliver, as l have tried a 'trial' letter, so l could complain, Years ago you could tell the time by the postman, the first thing the government should do, is get rid of the pen pushers who control the royal mail, bring back the post offices that were closed down, and get there act together, l am all for productivity deals and bringing the royal mail up to the 21 century, but making cutbacks is not the answer.
