• Monday also postal workers will also be on strike with picket lines at postal depots in Biddulph, Leek, Cheadle, Uttoxeter, Newcastle, Kidsgrove, Burslem, Stoke, Stone, Stafford and elsewhere. Picket lines will be in place from 6.15am onwards.
• There will also be a picket at Customer Services at 7am and MDec at 5.30pm both near old Sentinel depot on Festival Park.

Workers on strike are always pleased to get visitors to their picket lines to show support. Tell them you are from the National Shop Stewards Network. I have leaflets for the various disputes you can take along to hand out.
