On SkyNews a New Labour MP against Madeleson said - he was not even elected. I hope the Unions do not Strike that is nasty on the public that need their important mail. Last edited by arista; 27-11-2013 at 09:21 AM. |

On Radio 5 Live , just now
A New Labour MP said it is not just about the money he said that inside the sorting area's can now be done better by automated machines, of course that saves millions on staff costs. So it looks like Strikes will happen what a time to have them typical of New Labour. Amazon UK sets up other deals to get their post out. That is good of them. I 'm sure Ch4 News at 7PM will be good on this. |

Privatisation is not the majic bullet that many polititions think it is..It inevitably results in mass unemployment and the tax payer paying for people who cannot re-skill or find jobs..Some saving that is......
If the post office needs modernisation then it should be done by the government not by some tin pot money greedy profit making private company with fat paid directors.... If we can give millions of tax payers money to greedy irresponsible bankers then we should at least look after our post office service and finance their modernisation too....... New Labour is not new labour it is a clone of typical de-humanised Tory idiots..... |

Yes New Labour will not Invest in the Royal Mail even though they own it. So they want 30% to go to a dutch firm that will make it more modern, 12 years of Stinking New Labour and they never helped enough on this. |

Yes Private Mail can be safer/better on some things.
But on this Part Sell Off It will split New Labour down the middle and that will be good to see as One Eyed Scottish Brown wants total control. And New Labour's Mandy is Corrupt as hell. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...way-ahead.html |

All hail the Moyesiah

I don't think there's really any need for a nationalised mail service particularly if it's wasting money, it's a service that can easily be run by the private sector imo

I am a five minute walk from the area's main sorting office. I work in an MP's constituency office... I have not yet had my post today and it's 2pm. If I have to collect something from the sorting office, the people who work there are surly and rude.
Sell them off, they're bloody useless. |

There is a Strike Today in some places. And due to the millions they are losing each year they have to sell it off to keep it alive |

So now I have to make a detour from work find somewhere to park and pay for a ticket, walk to the collection depot and then take another ticket to get served , wait for about 45 mins before finally getting my package.Also the postal workers in the depot could not give a flying ***** about their customers. They were rude and obnoxious to most customers, I was shocked to think they were employed in such a customer based service industry. Sell them off, their days of insulting customers is surely coming to an end. |

I don't disagree one bit that the post is now all over the place as to when you get it but we do still get a delivery every day and at really not too bad a cost either.
I still don't consider 60p for being as near sure as you can be that a letter or card will be there the next day after posting as being in any way too expensive. Sell any of it off though and then see what the costs are likely to rise to, we have heard all this before that selling something off will be beneficial in the long run and it generally proves the very opposite is the case. |

Yes but to be honest how much of what comes through the post is useful mail ? its probably 50% Bills, 40% Loan Applications and the rest from Charities begging for money.

Sadly though the bills will still come through the door whoever is delivering the mail. We actually gather up all the junk mail and then use any pre-paid enevelopes from other places we don't want mail from to send it off to them. The mail I do send though, I want to be as confident as I can be that the cost is okay and that it will get there, I can unfortunately see both changing for the worse if any selling off is done. Reform things in the Royal Mail by all means but I would hate to see any selling off of it,that's my line on this anyway. |
