Fifty-two post offices will be closing by October due to a decline in use and increasing operational costs. Hundreds of jobs are reportedly in jeopardy, although staff shortages in post offices are also one of the reasons for the closures.
'Post Office closing 52 offices across the UK. Most are in Morrisons shops, which are closing as its private equity owner makes cuts. More will close as private equity-owned TG Jones (WH Smith) makes cuts,' said Lord Prem Sikka.
