None of the so called private postal services deliver letters up here in Caithness. They are all passed on to Royal Mail to deliver and Royal Mail are forced to deliver them. Not only that but they have to deliver them at a Loss. Every letter that Royal Mail delivers for another company Royal Mail loses money and after a while this adds up to quite a sum.
If Royal Mail is sold off then what will happen to our mail delivery service as all the other postal services say it is too expensive to deliver letters to Caithness and most of Scotland North of Inverness.
The only reason that the Government want to sell off Royal Mail is that if they can do this, then they will access to the Royal Mail Pension Fund which is rather large. So if you want to have your mail delivered on time and still 6 days a week then sign this petition for if you don't you could end up having one delivery a week. Or even worse, be forced to go and pick up your mail from a single collection point.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.
