POST OFFICE CLOSURES REVEALED

MP Norman Baker said: 'This is a terrible day for local communities, not just in my constituency but all across the country.
'The Government has slaughtered the post office, we are now going to see a huge number of people disadvantaged by this and there will be huge queues at the few post offices which remain.
'The consultation has been a sham, arbitrary targets have been set down and the Government has just been going through the motions.'
