Government complacent over Post Offices
A Liberal Democrat motion expressing concern over the vulnerability of local post offices and calling on the Government to end the 'paralysis in decision-making' over the Post Office network and Royal Mail was rejected by the Government last night. MPs from all main parties criticised the Government during yesterday's opposition day debate over the planned withdrawal of the post office card account and other issues, and called on the Government to bring forward plans for the future of the post office network urgently.
