This may have been covered before (re the temp workers), but don't the Royal Mail normally hire around 15k temps at this time of year for the build up to Christmas?

So they are hiring another 15k temps to deal with the backlog caused by the strike - is this reasonable, or do we believe that the workers going on strike should be able to earn overtime catching up on the backlog created by the strike?
