SIR – Interesting to see the Government’s benefits contract comes up for renewal in the next few weeks.
If this is not awarded it is obvious a few thousand more post offices will go to the wall.
When the financial houses got themselves into a mess, the Government moved to alleviate the problem via the tax payer.
Faint hope then of the Government helping the senior citizens, (some of us pay tax) by subsidising the post office.
E W TAYLOR, Redditch.
