THE impending closures of five postal delivery offices have been delayed indefinitely, the Echo can reveal.
Royal Mail planned to shut its bases in Shoebury and Great Wakering on Monday, followed by Leigh on March 4 and Rochford and Canewdon on March 25.
Their services would then be amalgamated into the company’s central branch in Southend’s Short Street.
However, James Duddridge, the Tory MP for Rochford and Southend East, told the Echo those closures had now been put on ice.
He added: “I have received confirmation that Shoebury and Great Wakering delivery offices will not close on February 11, as originally planned and publicly announced.
“The closures of Rochford and Leigh delivery offices have also been delayed.
“I am meeting the chief executive of Royal Mail in Parliament next week and no delivery office in the Southend area will close prior to this meeting.”

Re: Royal Mail delays service closures in Southend
Does this MP really think he will stop the closures, from what i heard it is still going ahead, still I guess it makes him important to think that by delaying it by two weeks will make a difference, you only have to look at whitstable who have a high profile campaign and RM have no intention of backing down

'Corporate responsibility is the umbrella term for the obligation a company has in considering the social (corporate social responsibility) and environmental (sustainability) impact of its activities and to go beyond this obligation in the treatment of economic, environmental and social activities to sustain its operations, financial performance and ultimately its reputation.'
That's screwed then especially if you follow the exchanges at 'Save Whitstable and Herne Bay Delivery Offices' on Facebook - the co. don't give a damn..
Every 'closure' is treated to carbon-copy treatment whether it's media handouts, responses to the people and businesses we deliver to or responses to our MPs..
