Another London Postal Strike Due Next Week

postbox_2Jul09.jpg You'd think everyone would be too hot to get belligerent and strikey, but the city's Royal Mail workers have voted for another set of strikes next week. And unlike last month, this time post will be affected for three days: delivery, distribution and mail centres are all stopping on consecutive days from Wednesday. The disagreements are still over failure to modernise and job cuts, but with the company facing an £8bn pension deficit and now with no buyer to bail them out, this dispute isn't likely to get resolved soon.
