They need their wages to stay inline with London house prices (ie. go up 25% pa).

The postal service in London is so bad I doubt anyone will notice.

i thought our postie was already on strike.
can't be bothered to make the extra 10 steps down to our flat, so leaves the post with the neighbours above.

Is there any point in a postal service these days, everything useful can be send/processed over the internet.

When was the last time you received a letter in the post that was:-

A. Useful
and
B. Could not have been transmitted electronically??

There are items like ebay purchases etc, but these are generally delivered by couriers who provide a better service at lower cost than the Royal Mail.

I have to agree with the other posts, the mail service is so bad in London going on strike will not degrade the service any further.
