Letter sent to PO Board proposing 'intense talks' ahead of strike
A five year plan which attacks the workforce and is just "controlled decline"
That's how Deputy General Secretary Postal of the Communcation Workers Union, Terry Pullinger, describes the changes being proposed for the Islands Post Office.
Yesterday, (Tues 4th) 93% of union members voted in favour of industrial action, with a two-day walkout scheduled for Thursday and Friday next week.
Chair of the Post Office, Julie Edge, says she believes there are enough non-CWU workers to keep core services running during any strike action.
Speaking on Mandate this morning (Wed 5th), Mr Pullinger said he had written to the Post Office board offering three days of intense talks ahead of the action and stated that they were prepared to discuss pensions
