black armband grieving cnuts..i'd love it if they just sacked the work shy , pocket dipping, trampling, juventus killing cnuts imo
Postal workers in Skelmersdale, Lancashire have warned they will walk out if they are forced to deliver free copies of The Sun later this week.
The paper has agreed not to distribute free copies in Liverpool because of the continued anger at the way it reported the 1989 Hillsborough stadium tragedy.
It is understood six members of staff in Skelmersdale were at Hillsborough on the day of the disaster.
The Royal Mail said any concerns would be handled "with fairness and dignity".
One worker said: "If they try to make us deliver The Sun on Thursday we will refuse and will be suspended and lose a day's pay, but we think principles are more important than money."
The postal staff's stance was backed by Skelmersdale North Councillor Neil Furey (Labour) who said: "Skelmersdale has a strong Merseyside connection and people will be disgusted to receive copy of the newspaper whose coverage after the disaster was very damaging and insulting."
A spokesman for The Sun said it had exempted Merseyside postcodes from its nationwide drop of its free World Cup-themed promotion, adding, "the Skelmersdale issue is a matter for the Royal Mail".
