Are royal.mail on strike

A timely question!

As of my knowledge cutoff, Royal Mail, the UK's postal service, was indeed on strike. The strike began on February 8, 2022, and was called by the Communication Workers Union (CWU) in a dispute over pay, jobs, and conditions.

The strike was the first national postal strike in the UK in over 20 years and affected around 115,000 Royal Mail workers, including postmen and women, delivery drivers, and other staff. The strike was initially planned for 19 days, but it was later extended to 28 days.

During the strike, Royal Mail suspended its delivery services, and customers were advised to use alternative delivery options, such as parcel lockers or collection points. The strike also affected the delivery of mail and parcels, including those sent by online retailers and businesses.

However, please note that the strike situation is subject to change, and I recommend checking the Royal Mail website or other reliable sources for the latest updates on the strike and its impact on postal services.

I hope this information helps!
