ROYAL MAIL ---- THE MONEY MYSTERY

So just what is going on at Royal Mail?
The company that you own is refusing to publish it's latest financials. It is thought that one of the reasons is because they are far better than they are telling the unions as they try to sack tons of staff and get the others to work harder to cover the jobs whilst offering them a 2.5% rise.
Another reason could be that the big bosses have awarded themselves a whopping bonus on top of their big basic and they think that could inflame the problems with the union. At least they are right there!
However as tax payers who own Royal Mail we have the right to know what is going on & how our money is being wasted.
The sheer arrogance of these people beggers the question "should they be in charge" of a company owned by the state.
It seems only a short time ago that we castigated Russia for not telling their people what was going on in the state.
Now we are doing the same.
We are going backwards with this policy.
Do we want to go down the Rusia Red route?

POST OFFICE

It comes as no surprise to learn that the Post Office is to pay the executive in charge £1m bonus if he does as he is told and shuts 2,500 post offices on time.
This is as well as his £250,000 basic you are paying him.

No account is given of the effect this will have on village life. Tesco is intent on grabbing a larger and larger slice of your cash on food and non-food which is closing more stores.
This means village life as we know it is under serious threat.
More people will move to towns due to lack of facilities where they live.
The ones left will have to drive miles further to get services. How does all this help their carbon footprint?

Most people do not want to see their Post Office close. Yet we are made to pay, through our tax, to do just that. And we even pay a big bonus to the man doing it as a thank you.
