Mail union discusses strike vote

Postal workers' leaders are to decide next week whether to hold a national strike ballot over jobs and services as the Government presses ahead with controversial plans to privatise the Royal Mail.

Around 500 Communication Workers Union officials will hold a two-day policy forum in London from Wednesday to discuss a possible timetable for a ballot of 115,000 Royal Mail employees in the coming months.
