I'm going on strike

I’ve been a card-carrying member of various unions since the age of 13.

I’m a great supporter of my fellow workers. Or, as my Tory friends call me, a communist.

So today, I’m prepared to support the postal workers in their strike by refusing to deliver to my neighbours all the mail which gets erroneously posted through our letterbox – including yesterday, worryingly, a chequebook.

Maybe if they were more efficient and learned to tell one number from another they’d get more public support.

It’s just a thought comrades…

It was always thus

According to this morning's news on the BBC, industrial action has meant that around nine million items of post have been delayed by the Royal Mail.

It's good of them to tell us - how else would we have noticed..?
