The Communication Workers Union is in dispute with Royal Mail over plans to modernise the service and have been staging a series of 24-hour walkouts around the country.
Though the strikes seem to be having little effect according to Royal Mail, the union are now planning to ballot its members on holding a national strike and have called on the government to intervene.
Lord Mandelson, the unelected Business Secretary, has rejected these calls and has told the union to ‘wake up’ so as to avoid Royal Mail's further decline.
Strewth! This is a Labour minister telling a union to wake up!
Whatever next?
