Royal Mail workers vote to strike

Royal Mail postal workers have voted to take strike action over job security and working conditions. <br /><br /> Postal workers voted three to one in favour of action, with 61,623 out of a total of 80,830 workers who voted saying they wanted to strike. <br /><br /> The company and unions have been unable to resolve differences on how best to modernise the postal service. <br /><br /> Royal Mail says it needs to make big changes to combat a fall in the number of letter and parcel deliveries. There have already been a series of regional strikes around the country in recent weeks that have created a backlog of millions of letters. The Communication Workers Union (CWU), which represents the workers, must give seven days notice before any strike begins.
