I don't know if people realise but the latest move by the CWU is a 48 hour strike which started at noon today and another on Monday.

This will effectively mean no post until next Thursday.

Its all very well having a unionised work force but with deregulation of the industry we are going to start seeing other carriers capitalise on situations like this and the unions will have no one but themselves to blame when they lose jobs.
