That's Royal Mail's excuse for their twice yearly well above inflation price rises. Demand is down so we whack up the prices and also dilute the level of service. Why not implement reforms that actually increase productivity and efficiency and lower their huge costs instead of just whacking the prices up? They shouldn't make the public pay for their inefficiency and shambolic service. Re-nationalisation just might stop the regular profiteering piss take of Royal Mail's pricing policy.Exactly how will renationalisation stop the price rises?
I would say it is down to the fact that no one writes letters anymore, very few send birthday cards, (and when they do the posty nicks them) and banks and others don't send paper statements or documents through the post.

Thats right. Also our biggest trading partner, we need em.Ch-i-n-a has spent untold amounts of money building new properties and road/rail infrastructure.
Why would it want to go to war and destroy everything?

Parents !
Why do some parents put the child seat on the drivers side of their car ? Why are they standing in the road trying to get their child out into on coming traffic.
I also had our child seat on the passenger side next to the pavement.

It's not an excuse by me, the Royal Mail bosses or anyone else.That's Royal Mail's excuse for their twice yearly well above inflation price rises.

I can't think of the last letter I wrote it was that long ago. No one sends birthday cards or get well cards and no business has written to me in yonks.
If it wasn't for all the free shit, Royal Mail would have nothing to post through my letter box. If, instead of increasing prices they dropped it to 10 pence for first class there would be no increase in trade.
Except for parcels it's a dead industry.

Totally agree what a rigmarole to get a Luke warm cup of coffee.Black Sheep Coffee shop.
What a carry on for a cup of coffee.
Screen to order
Americano....Large....Milk....Take away cup....Usual nonsense add on so and so.No....Add in name.
Payed.
Waited 10 mins,only 2 in front and 3 staff behind counter.
Coffee arrives without milk leaves seat for staff to put in milk.
Shambles all that palaver for a cup of coffee.
Never again.
And Royal Mail completely failed to take advantage when on line shopping took off. White van man got most of the trade.Exactly how will renationalisation stop the price rises?
