"Amateurish and ruthless" negotiations
An experienced union representative says talks with the Isle of Man Post Office board are the most amateurish and ruthless negotiations he's ever been involved with.
Deputy General Secretary (Postal) Terry Pullinger's comments come after the Communication Workers' Union announced its members who work for the post office on the Island would be going on strike for three days in February.
He says he's not seen anything like it before.
