Yes also found that part particularly interesting.
The irony of the board looking to safeguard jobs.One presumes at executive level but they couldn't care less otherwise.
If you take the article at face value they meetings have obviously gone in to some detail.
I'm 15 years and out.Sack the lot and get that SP up ;-)

You are correct those are the terms of a 'good leaver'
You're correct it will be probably watered down to about 3 minutes of decent footage.
The usual Mrs Smith in the middle of nowhere saying about her cards from her long lost sister aunties second cousin not showing in 3 weeks.
There is absolute zero accountability within Royal Mail that is the trouble.
Managers will be breaking rank and talking to panorama and also Posties have been interviewed too.
I just presumed it shares set aside for Long term incentive schemes so more payments for executives.
The government side of the USO is only 14% of the overall mail volumes.
They can effectively control the other 86% which is bulk with a deferred service and you've got the 3 days they wanted effectively.
OFCOM not a problem they already green lighted the current DtS product which exists.
Yodel I think includes ArrowXL who also do bulky items so kind of similar to Tufnells I guess.
While not maybe linked directly we are still waiting on the reply for the new CEO to the select committee. A joint statement with the CWU on the QoS might be helpful in this regard.
As with the seasonal hours in hindsight maybe everything wanted by the company should of been just left alone.
I personally think the company thought the USO changes would of been done and dusted by now and everything would of fell into place....and there is a chance it might of.
The current under resourcing model is well worth the £5.6m fine IMO.
I think this will do nothing at all to try and increase QoS targets.
Interesting OFCOM said he found no evidence of prioritisation of parcels over letters.
All your manager has to do is report a clear office not that there has to be a clear office.
Take it all if you can complete bring it back ;-)
Forget the millions they are pouring down the drain the biggest failure coming from a direct consequence of the NW hub was plastic yorks and snow shovels!
More packets inbound now RM are delivering the final mile replacing Yodel for inpost lockers so I hear .....
The Business Secretary said she does not have plans to approve the Royal Mail switching to a five-days-a-week operation.
Kemi Badenoch suggested to MPs that allowing the Royal Mail to shed its Saturday delivery and pick-up duties would mean it “stops being the service which you want”.
The Royal Mail’s universal service obligation (USO) forces it to deliver letters six days a week to all 32 million addresses in the UK for the same price no matter where the letters are going.
Ofcom this month announced it is reviewing the UK’s universal postal service regime.
The watchdog said it would be gathering evidence on how the minimum service level “might need to evolve to more closely meet consumer needs”.
The proposed agreement stated that 6 monthly reviews would happen and if absence was better then 5.5% the old standards would be reintroduced.
The company have today put out Comms on the new absence policy.
It's hard I imagine for any branch with members on the PEC to go against the national stance.
Oh I agree totally I think its a good way to diversify and as a customer me and Mrs Hurtsparrow use inpost lockers all the time.
Like I said the company from what I've seen and read are really not keen on lockers with the current model.
Anger. Currently the senior people are dead against lockers.
We go to the customer every day they can't see a viable reason why the would need to spend out on lockers.
Parcel collect, auto re-delivery coming in May which the company will hope boost first time deliver rate.
The current thinking is no need for the customer to go out the way when the RM can come to you.
