Post Office Closures

The inevitable destruction of Britain's postal service heads a step closer the cliff as many local branches are closed down or sold off. Along side this the Government have scrapped the Post Office card account (which many local people used).

A petition with 3 million signatures is to be handed into Downing Street this Wednesday in a effort to show how the nation feels about the post office network and where it is now heading.



Sadly, it is not likely to have much effect as Royal Mail seems intent on self destruction at the hands of a liberalized market enforced by the European Union and our Governments willingness to surrender one of our few remaining state owned businesses.
