Rainy Days for Royal Mail
Poor industrial relations have already degraded the quality of Universal Service. First class UK post is now taking three to seven days or more to arrive; I got a birthday card from my sister recently that took one month via air mail from the USA. Up until a year ago, that card would have arrived within 5 to 7 days.
