The government announced last week that it was to close 2,500 post offices across Britain.

As well as opposing the closures, workers in these offices have begun an industrial action ballot over pay which could lead to them striking at the same time as their Royal Mail comrades.

It seems the government had already decided the future of these offices despite the sham â€œconsultation periodâ€

The whole postal network is being threatened in such a way as has never been witnessed before. Every single postalworker should do
themselves the biggest favour of their entire working lives, and vote yes in the ballot.
