Save Formosa Street Post Office!

Last month, the Post Office announced the latest round of proposed cuts to Post Offices around the country. In our local area, four post offices have been earmarked for closure including, sadly, our local one in Formosa Street, Little Venice.

As local councillors, we despair at the short-sightedness of this move by the Post Office and the government. Whilst we recognise that the Post Office’s business model is broken, the solution to this issue is reduce its network coverage so that large swathes of urban London no longer have access to a local branch. After so many years of taxing, spending and failing it really isn’t good enough that suddenly the government is seeking to penalise some of the most vulnerable members of our local community by closing Formosa Street.

Note to Karen: this is your government closing these Post Offices. For once in your life leave the politics aside; don’t grandstand and try to do something.
