Postal workers at Royal Mail  are threatening a series of walkouts in a dispute over pay, and this may interfere with the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.  So Royal Mail chiefs are using this in negotiations with postal union leaders to ask them not to disrupt deliveries of the book.

Royal Mail human resources director Kevin Green has sent a letter to the Union that says; “J.K. Rowling’s book, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, is due to be released on Friday, July 20, for delivery on July 21, and we will be providing a next-day delivery service for many major book retailers.
