It is a devastating blow to all sub-postmasters and the communities concerned that the post office network is being decimated throughout Sussex and the wider country.

However, please be aware that the instructions to close 2,500 offices in Britain came directly from the Government.

It is, therefore, hypocritical of the local MPs to complain and to shift the blame on to Post Office management who are only doing their master's bidding.
