Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Cox (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 May 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Post Office Review.
Post Office Review
Does the Secretary of State understand the gloom that will descend on small rural communities throughout the south-west as a result of this announcement? What weight will be given to the availability of public transport? Most of the small post offices under threat in my constituency are in villages where the sight of a bus is as rare as a phoenix. Will that protect them? Or is that idea simply a token gesture to the isolation of those communities?
