Brendan Barber on Royal Mail strike

18th June 2009

Commenting on tomorrow's strike (Friday) by CWU members in Royal Mail in London, TUC General Secretary Brendan Barber said:

"It is disappointing that CWU members in London have felt driven to take industrial action in a dispute over jobs and conditions. "Royal Mail industrial relations need a real overhaul and I hope that they will act on the CWU's bold and imaginative proposals for three months of intensive talks on the modernisation of the industry and a new industrial relations framework, accompanied by a moratorium on any industrial action during that period."
