Cynical, Cynical Post Office

Last night on Midlands Today I watch a representative of the Post Office claim that there had been public consultation for its proposed closure of local offices. 'Fraid I have only one word for that: "Bollocks". The Post Office had plainly decided which ones would close and the whole consulation process was a complete sham.

My evidence for this claim: simple - 50 offices in the West Midlands are to close and just ONE has been reprieved.

This process is moving on inexorably now to the West Mercia area and no-one will believe the Post Offices claims about the consulation.

Yes, the Post Office badly needs reform but this is a public relations disaster on a grand scale.
