PICKET LINE: CWU members staged their second successive weekend walk-out in Irvine.

MAIL deliveries were hit for the second successive weekend in Irvine as more than 50 posties continued their strike action over working conditions and service cuts.

Fifty-four workers walked out at 9am on Saturday morning leaving senior management to tackle deliveries throughout the town.

The striking workers formed a picket line outside the High Street delivery office to again reinforce their anger at local working condition as well as nationwide Royal Mail cuts.
