It appears that Conservative and Liberal Democrat
politicians in Southend West have suddenly become champions of the main Post
Office in Leigh-on-Sea.
Whilst I welcome supporters from across the political
spectrum, it is a rather late conversion to a cause. Where were these people
when we had two public demonstrations and a public meeting?
Still, every voice against this undesired closure is
needed, wherever they come from. Communities are made by things like Post
Offices.
I am proud to day that I have been actively campaigning
for the Rectory Grove to remain for more than six months, as have many of my
Labour colleagues. Had we seen a Labour victory on June 8th then our manifesto
commitment to nationalise the Royal Mail would have seen these local facilities
preserved. We can only hope that a Labour Government is not too far away and
that communities will be rescued from these unpopular decisions.
