What the Post Office Being Arrogant and Insensitive - Surely Not
Post Office bosses were last night accused of rubbing salt into customers' wounds after leaflets boasting about services were delivered to communities with closure-threatened branches.
Angry customers about to lose essential services also said officials were wasting precious funds on pointless expensive advertising when they claimed the closure programme was to save money.
The leaflets from “the people's Post Officeâ€

Nice one teebs we've got a link from that which i've put on the portal.
http://www.postofficeclosures.org.uk
The formation of CAPOC:Communities Against Post Office Closures.
CAPOC was formed in February 2008 by groups opposing Post Office closures in the communities of Rippingale, Langworth and Castle Bytham in Lincolnshire, Passfield in Hampshire, Somerby in Leicestershire and Burton Fleming in East Yorkshire.
This was because it had become obvious to all that the National media were not reporting on the story and it became increasingly clear, with the January publication of the first wave of closure results for Kent, East Midlands and Yorkshire, that the chances of any single action group fighting and winning were very slim.
The rationale for the formation of CAPOC was that a coalition of such opposition groups would :
Provide help and advice, borne out of experience, for communities newly threatened with closure
Have more political 'clout' with a greater chance of achieving a positive outcome.
Attract more extensive national media coverage than has been the case so far.
Provide, via the CAPOC website, a focal point and discussion forum for the group.
The individual groups have a wide variety of campaigning styles and ideas; these will help new groups to quickly zero in on the most effective campaigning strategies that suit their particular needs.
All member groups share the same sense of outrage at the loss of a valuable community service and the potential that this closure has to destroy their communities.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

I can't help but think that, if all these people who are now angry over PO closures had of supported us during the last strike then :cfo :lfo would've been removed and Brown/Blair couldn't have forced through all these unpopular closures (just so they could sell off what is left of the family silver for a rock bottom price
