Keep Our Post Offices Open
Post Offices are the lifeblood of any community – and yet 4,000 have been shut under Labour and they are planning to close a further 2,500 by 2009.
We are vehemently opposed to these plans, as we believe Post Offices are vital institutions, as important to communities as the local school or pub.
We put forward a motion in Parliament calling for an end to closures, but despite the support of 20 Labour MPs, the Government managed to narrowly defeat our proposal.
But you can help us make Labour listen. Sign our petition today and become a part of our campaign to save Britain's Post Offices.
OUR PLANS TO STRENGTHEN BRITAIN'S POST OFFICES
Using Post Offices as Government GP service:
- We will investigate a scheme whereby Post Offices operate as a ‘Government GP’ for people who have concerns about Government services, including tax returns and pension entitlements
Freeing up Sub-Postmasters:
- We will rewrite Sub-Postmasters' contracts and allow them to provide a greater range of products and services
Bolstering the Post Office Card Account:
- This scheme is hugely important to millions of families without access to bank accounts – and we will make changes so they can benefit from the lower utility bills offered to customers paying by direct debit
Encouraging 'Council Counters':
- We will encourage local councils to see what services they could provide though Post Offices
