Wrexham postal workers walk out

Mail deliveries in Wrexham were hit yesterday by the first national walkout by postal workers in over a decade.

Up to 130,000 members of the Communication Workers Union took action after rejecting a 2.5% pay offer, and warning that the Royal Mail’s modernisation plans will lead to 40,000 job losses.

Talks aimed at breaking the deadlock failed on Wednesday evening, and lead to warnings that the strike would damage the postal organisation and boost its competitors.
