If Royal Mail execs have their way, it'll be the end of your local postie. They dished out £2 billion to shareholders in recent years. But it's never enough. Now they want to turn it into a gig economy company. That’s why 115,000 are on strike. RT if you’re behind them 💌

Excellent turnout for Plymouth paddle out to try & stop the shitshow that is happening around the UK - discharge of raw sewage into our rivers & seas, whilst the water companies continue to pay dividends to shareholders. #OceanActivists #SASpaddleout #fishnotfaeces #cutthecrap
