Fidel Castro, Cuba's leader of revolution, dies at 90

Cuba's former president Fidel Castro, one of the world's longest-serving and most iconic leaders, has died aged 90.

His younger brother and successor as president Raul Castro announced the news on state television.

Castro toppled the government in 1959, introducing a Communist revolution. He defied the US for decades, surviving many assassination plots.

His supporters said he had given Cuba back to the people. Critics saw him as a dictator.

Post Office workers to strike for third time in four months

Members of the Communication Workers Union will walk out on Saturday, 3 December.

The union is embroiled in a long-running row over the franchising of Crown post offices, the larger branches usually sited on high streets, job losses and the closure of a final salary pension scheme.

Mark Davies, communications and corporate affairs director at the Post Office, said... “We can reassure our customers that, if a strike goes ahead on 3 December, the vast majority of people working at post office branches would not be involved and almost all of our network will be operating to its usual Saturday schedule.”
