      I’m sure his priority is to ensure that our nation has an efficient and affordable delivery service.

      What. The. Hell.

      Starmer is worse than the Tories at this rate. What’s next? Elon Musk buys the NHS?

      (can’t resist a “your Czech is in the mail” joke, with apologies)

    4. >The government will retain a so called “golden share” that will require it to approve any major changes to Royal Mail’s ownership, HQ location and tax residency.

      >Other commitments to unions include workers getting a 10% share of any dividends paid out to Kretinsky, as well as the formation of a workers group that will meet monthly with the directors of Royal Mail to give employees a bigger voice on how it is run.

      Honestly, this sounds fine.

    5. Given the shit show that is Royal Mail lately, a Czech billionaire can probably only improve things. 

      Right? Right…..?

      Once you sell something to private shareholders, you can’t really complain much when they sell it on or it changes hands. The damage was done a decade ago when it was privatised, and I doubt this will really change much.

      So labour puts its money where its mouth is on renationalising industries /s

      They’ve been trying to force out the existing staff and replace them with short term workers on terrible contracts for years.

    9. Posting 100 Christmas cards via 1st Class post in the UK costs £165

      German Post 100 Christmas cards posted from Germany to the UK Internationally £91

      I could fly to Germany, post 100 Christmas cards to family and friends, spend the night in a hostel, eat some cheap food and fly back and it would be cheaper.

      So when do we have to bail this out or is the new price for a First Class going to be like £5 now?

      Let’s face it, he’s the only sort of person that can afford a stamp these days.
