WEIR APPEALS FOR ROYAL MAIL RESOLUTION

Commenting on news that Royal Mail postal workers have voted to take strike action over job security and working conditions, SNP Westminster Business and Enterprise spokesperson, Mike Weir MP, appealed for a resolution to the dispute.

Mr Weir said:

“I understand the concerns and frustration that postal workers have, however many people, and in particular businesses, are deeply worried about the damaging impact this strike action will have.

“Conciliation is the right way to seek a resolution, and both sides must pull back from the brink and get on with meaningful negotiation.”
