Stoke-on-Trent is one of nine centres across the country that is under review

Members of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) have taken part in a protest march through the streets of Hanley over the potential loss of 400 Royal Mail jobs in Stoke-on-Trent.

About 200 people demonstrated against the possible closure of the customer contact centre in Etruria.

Maxine Tuck from the CWU says workers are "scared for their jobs".

Royal Mail insists that while a review is taking place, there are no current plans to close the centre.

they're usually rubbish councillors , they don't attend many town hall meetings and tend to be too thick to keep up . Anyone can go round Estates and stir it up .
