PICKING up my mail the other day, I was appalled to find not three but seven political party leaflets delivered by the postman.
On making inquiries, I was informed by the Royal Mail that they are only being paid to deliver Conservative, Liberal Democrat and Labour leaflets and that it is in their contract to deliver the rest fee of charge.
This is diabolical and disgraceful, to say nothing of the money wasted, because I am sure most other people, like me, have thrown them all in the bin.
What a waste of time and money.
I don't know how the postmen and women can put up with it.
