Never mentioned anything about profit or indeed the government propping up the company, you really should look to read a post properly before commenting. My comment was based upon your wild claim that JC will renationalise the RM and thus give it back into the public hands! Firstly Labour can't afford it, secondly what's the point? The reason why the government were so keen on privatisation was that they spent all the time arguing with the unions the Labour government in particular. Thirdly we are in the process of modernising the hell out of this company and with it will go the likes of you and your militant bunch of bruvers. Your previous comments as to how nothing will happen as you and the CWU rule the company is laughable especially as your Union owns nothing, we the shareholders own the company and ultimately the BOD report to us not your backward little Union based out of the 70's.
On the subject of the Divi you seem to want to see pain inflicted on the shareholders and boast about how the cost of your dispute affects the Divi and comes out of there pockets. I might remind you that there are literally hundreds of thousand of investors (perhaps millions) predominantly pensioners that invest through investment funds that if what you say is correct will ultimately affect directly the pension they receive. You might like to dwell on that point before you start shouting your mouth off?
Needless to say the posties deserve a good pay increase and pension so in a way I don't care. What I do know is that people like you are the past not the future, you will be gone soon and in your place will be a shiny peace of computerised equipment chugging away - they might even name it after you, now I wonder what name they will come up with?
