Proceeding contribution from Emily Thornberry (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 October 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Royal Mail.


Royal Mail

Is the Minister aware that in Islington an agreement was reached under which there would be cuts in staff numbers and changes in working practices to pave the way for more machinery—but that the difficulty was that national management walked in and tore that agreement up? That is why the workers there are on strike.
