Cost of Strikes31 Aug 2022 10:42
It occurred to me last night that even though RM are “losing £1m a day” they’ll be saving more by not paying the striking posties. There’s 115,000 on strike apparently; take off those on holiday, official day not working (one a week) and people off sick and that leaves say, 80,000 (a guess). 80,000 times roughly £100 per day pay equals £8m. Subsequently I don’t think the management will be too bothered. And for anyone’s information I’m retired now, but I still have shares.
