“Sopel on Sunday” today features interviews with the Royal Mail’s Adam Crozier and David Miliband on The Andrew Marr Show, and Peter Mandelson and Billy Hayes on the Politics Show.
Hayes says:
“Other postal administrations are innovating, are intorducing change with the consent of the workfroce – Germany, France, the USA – but what we seem to have here is change by imposition…[The deal via the TUC] is a good start, it’s a recognition that we can begin to move forward…We’re working on the basis that we want to get an agreement.”
Mandelson says:
“I’ve got nothing to do with the negotiation…bewteen the management and the union. I haven’t even seen the detailed agreement they made. I haven’t had one discussion with the chief executive of Royal Mail. So how I would by some means of telepathy or some other magical means be able to orchestrate a dispute and then intervene in it so that a deal collapsed, I don’t know”.
Meanwhile, on the possibility of a President Blair, David Miliband says:
“Other Europeans I talk to view with bemusement this argument from the Conservatives that somehow it’s bad for Britain to have a former British Prime Minister in a leading role in Europe. Some of them can’t quite believe it. It must be good for us to have someone who is a former British Prime Minister, who knows Britain well, who as we know is a powerful advocate for policies that are agreed in the appropriate democractic processes in the European Union – that seems like a very good thing and not a bad thing.”
There is also an interview with the Tories’ Ken Clarke.
