@deirdrebeth @static @farah In fact I share your opinion, and if it was my decision, #PostalServices would be nationalized & monopolized and forced to provide services at fair and reasonable rates.

#USPS is just a horrible example, because #DeutschePost / #DHL can do it way better and if you gotta say "D'uh, #Germany is so smol" then consider #RoyalMail & #FrancePost as well...

Spotted this snazzy new cyborg parcel post box near me yesterday. I don't like the fact that the camera faces outwards though. #postbox #royalmail #surveillance

I never thought buying 100 each of 1st and 2nd NVI stamps in 2012 would turn out to be such a great investment. #royalmail #stamps

𝘈𝘥𝘮𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘥𝘭𝘺, the #PostalServicesBill was 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 abandoned in 2009, after opposition from unions ... but it set the pathway, and later influenced the Coalition's 2011 Act and 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻!
