Royal Mail is planning to cut 1,600 roles as part of a drive to cut costs, mainly among its head office managerial staff.
The news comes on the same day that figures show a fall in petrol prices pushed the UK inflation rate to a new four-year low of 1.7% last month.
Chancellor George Osborne said the job losses were a "matter of great regret" but said in other areas jobs were being created.

Of course he does ... they're highly-paid "Management" jobs rather than mere "prols" ...
"We're under model" - oh no we're not - stick your lapse elsewhere ...
