all i see is the the post office are determined to turn this into something nasty.
or they are determined to keep the business running and minimise the loss due to people going elsewhere.

My parcel that was meant to be delivered on Friday, then on Saturday never came. Getting fed up of it.

EDIT: Just read the BBC article, it looks to me like RM are recruiting staff to clear the backlog after the strike(s), not as a replacement for the striking workers. Fancy that, RM not wanting to pay overtime to people that have caused the problem in the first place.
