You come across as desperate to make people believe you are in close contact with upper management but continually try to pry information from people on here that your so called friends would have already told you if your so called connections actually existed.

You really believe that my colleagues and myself should not feel anger over the way we were treated especially with regards to the lies used as part of the closure, you are delusional if you think otherwise.
So you keep saying over and over and over again. I have no interest in your view upon this matter and I doubt anyone else on the forum cares about who I do or don't know either- it's simply not relevant.

I must remind you that what you post on here is legally regarded as having been published- haven't you been listening to the news?

Appropriate action has been taken regarding your allegations and decision not to take down the letter.

I didn't tell you to take it down, I requested you to. Your decision not to do so has been noted.

Your posting style and nonsensical comments are now coming across as extremely immature.

How do you know all this? Its clear VM are not going to post their views on a forum so you are only seeing what the union are saying.

General Warning: Debate the issues, not the personalities of the people making the posts. If you can't do this without resorting to snide remarks over people's motives and veiled threats towards each other then butt out before the Cable Forum Team intervenes.

But internally the letter states collective bargaining is a voluntary agreement so they can end it anyway, however they want the view of their people rather than just giving the union notice. To me that seems a reasonable approach or am I missing something?

The letter also states that this in no way affects their right to union representation on any other issues so can't understand all this de recogtition and union busting talk

So veiled threats and stupidity.

This is a private forum and I can post what I want as long as it is within the guidelines of the forums rules as set out by the forum team and owners, if they so wish they can remove or edit any post on this forum if they deem it needs removing or editing.

As I am posting as a private individual who has not posted their identity or even their own private email address on this forum how on earth could any action be taken against me as the team will not disclose my email address to anyone as that is the forum agreement and secondly that is basically a proxy email address that forwards emails to my own personal email account.

I remember a post in the Closure of the Albert Dock thread where you amazingly tried to state that no one called peter was ever a member of the CWU as John East had told you this was a fact, this was a childish attempt to get me to post my name on an open forum and at the time I informed you that the were quite a few people at the Albert Dock in the union called Peter, personally I think you have delusions of grandeur as you try to insist that you have the ear of both Virgin Media high management and alternatively the ear of the CWU.

So get real and try and understand how a forum works and possibly send a PM to the team for help and guidance as to how this forum is run or you could just click this link below and read the forum rules so CLICK ME

Which obviously I do not have access to as I am not an employee and even when I was an employee I would never post anything not in the public domain as it is the quickest way to lose your job and job prospects.

Re: You can't get me I'm part of the Union........

I think its fair to say that John East wanted the letter to get to as many people as possible. My mate has had 3 unsolicited mails from 3 different union sources, with different content each time but every one a veilled threat of what VM sre going to do once the union are out of the way. The funny thing is each letter ends with join the union now for the reduced price of 5.19 - bit like VM's offers to new customers

Re: You can't get me I'm part of the Union........

I have removed a bunch of recent posts.

I, and the team, are sick of the attitude of certain members.
They know who they are, and the attitude will cease, or some forum memberships will be terminated.

Carry on please, and stick to the topic, not each other.
