Don’t boycott your rural Post Office

I’m sure many of you feel outraged about the treatment of the Post masters and Post mistresses by Post Office Limited, in the Horizon computer scandal. I was talking with the Post master in my village hall outreach post office on Friday and he was so upset. His business was not affected, but many people he knew were. He said it's really hard to know how to show the PO how we all feel about this, but a boycott of Post Offices will just lead to reduced services, particularly in rural areas.
I haven’t seen any national campaign on a boycott, but thought it worth passing on his appeal. Use your local Post Office – whether it be van, village hall or local shop, otherwise we will lose this vital service.
You can write to your MP if you want to be heard on this, but use your local post office, they need your support.
