I will be making the case as best as possible for this post office not to be closed - as well as being my closest post office, it seems well used and is an area of huge new developments - including the site opposite that has just been granted planning permission for over 100 new homes - to close it now would be very short sighted indeed.
Yet again Coleridge is being let down by a Labour government that will have shut over a third of the post office network by the time it is thrown out of office in 2010. Prior to the latest 3 closures, the number of Post Offices in Cambridge had already fallen from 21 in 1999 to 16.
The Conservatives have put forward an action plan to allow a better business case to be made for keeping Post Offices open, and tried to stop the closures in parliament.
