Now for the chop
Including branch here in Bridlington
So murch scandal

That's tough, Saundra, it must be that Bridlington is a "Crown Post Office". They are usually in major city centres.
I did check, and thankfully our local High Street one isn't listed.

There's a full list of branches at risk here if anyone's interested:

Ossie yes the one in town is a Grown post office so if it's that one
It's such a loss we are rural on a railway line going nowhere always stricks we are doomed UK is like a runaway train going down hill very fast with no breaks

Our little village post office closed nearly two years ago, it’s been a big loss to many around here as it was always busy.
I usually use the Royal Mail collection service for anything I need to post now as our nearest town centre post office always has a ridiculously long queue and just one person serving.
Pay online (at a reduced cost), book a collection for a day which suits and the postie collects from the door, and even brings a postage label.

That's good to know jo thanks

Gloucester is on that list! That's absolute madness, it's the main city for the whole county, people bus in from miles around!

We're quite lucky, we have the main Post Office in town on the High Street, and a small franchised Post Office counter at the One Stop shop on Broad Robin (that's a street name!!) about 10 minutes walk from home.
I use both, they are a Godsend for drawing cash out of the bank because the nearest bank branches are now 25 miles away and the ATMs here in town reportedly constantly malfunction .....

We are losing four Crown post offices in Leeds - two in the outskirts and two in the city centre. The two in the centre are always rammed and that makes me suspect that the P.O. excuse of branches not being profitable rings hollow.

All the ones in Leeds are in high rent shopping centres and I think that is where the truth lies.
