The plan to bring the union down
The plan to bring in modernisation quicker.
The plan to start wagging the tail
The plan to buy r/m cheap
The plan to lead the union and its worker up **** creak with no where to go
The plan to streamline the workforce
The plan to say no to your demands and hope you strike
The plan to rip up your agreements
Hmmmm….a plan

@ wolves.
Totally agree.
Thompson is meant to run the company, NOT run it into the ground. But getting paid for failure is what it's all about.
I thought he'd be gone by the end of this month. Maybe it's a stay of execution, hence the ACAS decision.
The desperation is clear.

I would suggest he’s the puppet,and being told to play it a certain way…I would suggest they realise the share price is being pushed down,and that the more it does the cheaper the company becomes for investors…eventually when it’s played out share holders make a lot,k gets a cheap company…
Perhaps the ceo gets a bonus for following guide lines….everyone is very naive if they don’t think this goes on…
I would say they have a plan and carnt believe the suckers at the union are helping…
Good look though with the striking…love it:-)

Well Maximas you say DK will have a plan I’m sure your right but I still say if he lays of postman who he think are dead wood he will struggle to get people to replace them . In which case the service will be worse then it is now which won’t do much for the share price

But it will be better,a lot better in the future…plan,plan,and plan some more..it’s not about the here and now:-)

@ Maximas1.
So two differing opinions on my job.
One pays me 50K+ and the other nothing.
At least be consistent with your nonsense.
Are they going to sack all posties in one go?
Or one by one?
Maybe they could seal up all the post and parcel boxes too?

Well,I’ve been pretty spot on so far….your union has been out manoeuvred,big time…my point has always been…there will be a plan…and by the looks of it your union and the posties are always on the back foot….always behind,always an emergency meeting to panic,panic mr mannering….keep it up boys…Stirling job:-)

max i do think the shareholders need the paddle more than us mere posties as they are sinking faster than the titanic at present.

When everyone’s sells …buy.
When everyone buys sell…quite simple..
There comes a point when the price is to good to turn down…i as others will…hopefully time it just right…as you do say. A lot of ifs and butts….but just look back at what I said a few months ago…it’s all coming true…it’s as plain as the letter in your bag:-)

max i do think the shareholders need the paddle more than us mere posties as they are sinking faster than the titanic at present.

You will find as the share price plummets(hopefully)and there picked up cheap…as yaz once said..the only way is up…
Your doing a sterling job…carry on postmen…will be a good film:-)

do you really think they going to bid for royal mail now. when they will have to pay @£3.50 a share average? and if so why havent they picked up cheap shares as you call it to take them above the 25% threshold over the last week!!!!

Don’t forget there maybe a premium….those that continue to buy while the price is driven down(prob for a reason)will do very well if plans come to fruition :-)

@ Maximas1.
Thank you for alleviating my financial fears.
In an earlier post (17.06) you said we were all going to get dismissed. Now we are getting redundancy.
At least i have something to fall back on. As well as my strike fund. Although, that is dwindling.
In the meantime, you carry on averaging down. I reckon a quid a share if IA continues up to crimbo

Redundancies…sacked…who knows….but prob the latter…but you get the drift…glad you take note….grab your paddle:-)

RE: ACASToday 18:27
Maximus you say they will get rid of all the dead wood which I hope your right but let’s say 30000 are dead wood who is going to deliver the post . I don’t know if you read online today but there are 1.2 million job vacancies which employees can’t fill so what makes you think if they get rid of postman people will apply for the job .We have had a vacancy in are office for 4 weeks 1 person applied 15 stone and unemployed for 2 years the manager said he only turned up to show he was trying to get a job to keep his job seekers allowance. Now if loads of postman get laid of there are plenty of jobs out there it’s not like Thatchers time when 3.4 million were unemployed and it was hard to get a job

Who knows what there plan is…but there will be one…
Personally I think there will be a change in the uso….
Game changer then…..when will that happen who knows…but it will….
I also think the union are very poor not looking ahead and realising there own actions are hindering there members big time…they look desperate,put with that the government don’t like strikes…there will be again more to come to help r/m…and put the boot into the union without it looking pre planned…
Just think out side the box for a moment…
Crush the union
Get rid of the deadwood.
Streamline then pay more for new starters with more responsibility….more money for yearly individual reviews…money talks,but it starts with making a lot of Monet streamlining..short term pain long term gain.
If the moneys is good you will get new starters.
This maybe a pile of crap…but there will be a plan.

'Everyone has a plan, until you punch them in the face' someone once said. This dispute will be played out in the public arena, which makes it harder for DK to win. RMG will be haemorrhaging cash, until it is settled. It could escalate across to Vesa's other UK investments, with royal mail workers and members of the public boycotting Sainsbury's stores. Interesting times.

Embarrassing now…split it..sell it…make money … move on…leave the **** show behind…

Redundancies…redundancies…redundancies…billionaires get what they want and laugh in the face of small minded people with poor life outlook.
Should make a film about this..let me call it carry on dinos

emergency meeting with CWU.

I heard there giving away free paddles..lol

don't worry about me m8. I am fine. You seem really upset with the workers. I suggest take a deep breath and look the world a little different. I don't give a **** about the shares. I refused the free shares from royal mail as I did not agree with the sale of the company. I do have some shares with KP2 and ADV. if ADV opens up few pence higher I can afford to send some money to Simon as he don't have any.

Good grief…worried..lol…your doing a Stella job…keep it up….your doing investors a good turn:-)

A/s
Management will have had this planned for weeks,I said it months ago,there’s a plan…they will have known the share price is under pressure…keep that pressure on…then when/if k gets the go ahead there will be an RNS…bought millions of shares for a few bob…even if k gets the knock back this will not be finnished…the next phase will be implemented….there’s always a worst case scenario….I for one almost bought in yesturday,and again today…but just about stopped myself….I want more cheaper
Posties carry on as you were:-)

Dowy…
You will find the company will have a few goals…
Streamline…efficiently….crush the union…rid the company of dead wood..
I could go on but you get the drift….after todays management comments,if you cannot now see there future goals and don’t accept them you will be replaced…k…if he gets in will be ruthless…you ain’t seen anything yet…I have said it for a while but they will not care about short term losses….it’s all about a few years down the line…they cannot keep coming back to this old tune played on an old fiddle…

You will care when you realise your attitude is all talk,no body will care a few months after you have gone,I hope you personally do go ahead with your half baked plan,as it will see you departed with paddle….you fail to realise that Simon probably is the puppet whose strings are being pulled,he will be sat there knowing he’s actually doing what’s been asked,and will be rewarded when the times right…this is why your mentality is doomed as a long term worker with r/m…
.please keep it up
Please carry on striking
Please say your not bothered
Please do not bottle it once your called in.
The share price keeps looking nicer by the day
The company becomes cheaper
K buys the company cheaper
Investors buy cheaper
Everyone’s a winner
Except poor old you and your merry men..lol

You fail to understand that the company now have you in there sights…you WILL BE replaced if you now don’t get in line,the dog will wag the tail…now agreements are being torn up they will just do what they want,no payouts,no going to court after dismissal as there will be no grounds…this is all about long term…they will not care…
lose money short term they won’t care.
Lose workers short term they won’t care.
Lose contracts they won’t care.
It’s all about starting afresh turning the company around playing hard ball.
You will soon see what the outside world is like…
Start looking now as good jobs next year will be harder to find,don’t forget to put dismissed on your CV.

I must say I use r/m Daily,very good on tracked,first and second…but your right and spot on with the dead wood….which I suspect will be next for the chopping block…the wheels are now in motion…will be very interesting to revisit these threads in two years time…

You may well find the market like the fact r/m are now,finally putting the union to sleep,moving on,they may well now like the fact that change will happen,sooner and quicker,which means more money coming in…the employees either get on board or they get moved on sharpish.

Today, the Royal Mail PLC (LON: RMG) share price fell 3.2%, bringing its total losses over the past week to 17.2%. The decline was precipitated by a strategy change initiated by the parcels company to revamp its industrial relations with the Communication Workers Union (CWU).
The parcels company noted that negotiations with the CWU had hit an impasse and has proposed that the discussions be referred to Acas (the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service) to see if a solution can be reached.

Royal Mail further announced that it would review or serve notice on several historical agreements and policies that the CWU has used to frustrate the company’s desire to transform its operations. The move will also help Royal Mail modernise how it works with the union.
Investors and the union workers were surprised by the steps Royal Mail took to resolve the ongoing friction between the company and the workers union. The parcels company noted that a complex web of agreements signed with the CWU over many decades had made it impossible for the company to modernise its operations.
Royal Mail noted that efforts to revamp its operations over the years had been met with resistance from the CWU, which has the power to veto some of the company’s operational decisions that could make it more competitive in the cut-throat delivery business.
By modernising its agreements with the CWU, Royal Mail will speed up its daily decision-making processes, quickly trial and introduce new technology, and reduce the complexity and cost of its operations. The move will also see Royal Mail revise the attendance policy of its employees who have been persistently missing work.
Royal Mail noted that it had invested tens of millions of pounds in new technology to improve the customer experience but could not use the information to improve performance and safety due to restrictive CWU agreements.
The company hopes to retain its position as the best employer in the parcel delivery industry by modernising its working relationship with the CWU.

The royal mail share price chart.

Royal Mail shares hit a two-year low this morning after the company confirmed that it still hadn’t reached an agreement with the Communication Workers Union (CWU) and would be terminating its agreement to protect jobs.
The company told the union that it would also be scrapping a nine-year deal to protect jobs and conditions, pushing the CWU to back down on strike action.
“After five months of talks and three days of damaging strike action, CWU continues to delay and block the changes we need to compete and protect jobs long-term. Royal Mail is losing £1million a day, and we need to break the impasse and move ahead with our transformation,” a Royal Mail spokesperson said in a statement today.

“We have today informed CWU that we want to modernise our ways of working, including serving notice and reviewing a number agreements that have been used to resist change, frustrate the adoption of technology, and effectively veto our transformation.”
It is understood that the company served notice of its intention to terminate the agreement this morning to union chief in person.
The private firm said it has proposed further talks should be taken to the publicly funded ACAS (Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service).
Released not to long ago..so some may have already read this,but for those who haven’t…

Shares plunged a further three per cent this morning following the news, the stock hit its lowest point since late 2020 to 207p.
Meanwhile, the union accused Royal Mail of an “all out attack,” calling on members to take part in upcoming strike action – scheduled for 30 September and 1 October.
