Blogalog - Longborough PO & Stores

A quote from the labour party’s 2001 manifesto….

‘Labour is pledged to a rural services standard to set out specifically what rural people can expect from 21 service providers - with annual auditing and commitments to service improvements … the Post Office is now obliged to prevent the closure of rural postoffices except in unavoidable circumstances, with £270 million to help achieve this and recruit sub-postmasters.’

So far from recruiting sub-postmasters they are sacking them!!

For anyone who didn’t hear him on the radio last week, another name for your letters list:   Alan McFadden, Minister for the Post Office.

 I’ve had a very interesting reply from the PM and will be replying to him and writing to McFadden, asking them to get PO Ltd to extend the six week “consultation” period, even if he doesn’t do anything else!
