WITH reference to many of the post offices closing in our area.
First, many post office services were withdrawn, like payment of old age pensions over the counter.
This was so the Post Office could say they were under-used.
This meant that post offices could only be run with a subsidy to keep them doing. The European Union has said this subsidy must be withdrawn, and our government has complied.
Where has the business gone? To Germany and France!
That says it all.
