💷 Today I am backing @duncancbaker's Banking Services (Post Offices) Bill.

❌ More than 8m adults would struggle to cope in a cashless society.

✔ This bill aims to legislate that high street banks must offer basic banking services through the @PostOffice branch network.

[Duncan Baker @duncancbaker]

My first 10 minute rule Bill. 👍 So important that we protect our communities, ensure the vulnerable and elderly can access basic banking services and ensure there is access to cash. My huge thanks 🙏 to the @PostOffice and @NFSP_UK for all your support. Amazing job you do!

[Duncan Baker @duncancbaker]

Great to be supported by the @NFSP_UK with my Banking Services (Post Offices) Bill.

✅ Make my Bill law! Enshrine in legislation that the banks must always offer banking services through the Post Office network and can't leave our rural communities out👍

Important analysis from @WhichUK about the role of cash in communities and the need to make sure people can access cash where and when they need it. That can be done at all 11,500 of our branches. Around 4,000 are open weekends too

#PostOffices are a lifeline for local communities. Today, I presented a petition from the residents of #LinlithgowAndEastFalkirk asking the @GovUK to protect the most vulnerable in society by committing to a @PostOffice subsidy package for the next 3 years in its spending review.

Post office branches ‘drive £1.1bn of additional high street spending’ for other retailers

Great write up of our #MillionsWithoutMail research from @BigIssue. As we enter the second wave of the pandemic, it's more important than ever that @beisgovuk set up an Address & Collect service to help homeless people access important services.

1/ Small shop owner? Here's a list of all the legislative changes so far this week that may impact you [takes a deep breath] @betterRetailing @ThisIsRN @retailexpress

[NFSP @NFSP_UK]

Compelling research from @CitizensAdvice shows the importance of access to post
#MillionsWithoutMail

[CitizensAdvice @CitizensAdvice]

💬“Without a fixed address it is impossible to receive post, or apply for jobs etc”

Our new #MillionsWithoutMail research reveals 7 million people haven’t been able to access their post over the last decade

We're urging the government to take action ⤵��� https://t.co/v1FvI7aSl1

UK Citizens Advice: It’s vital the government acts now to ensure our postal system is truly universal https://t.co/lf7mu8S9F3 via @Post_and_Parcel @CitizensAdvice #universalpostalservice

[Gemma Byrne @gbyrne03]

Post offices have the potential to deliver far greater social value, but at the moment the cracks are showing in the network.

In the upcoming spending review the government faces a choice - does it let post offices decline or allow them to thrive?

[Gemma Byrne @gbyrne03]

Post offices are what keep many isolated communities from being cut off entirely. But @CitizensAdvice finds that the number of 'temporarily' closed post offices has more than doubled in the last 3 years.

I say 'temporarily' because 2 in 3 stay closed for over a year.

We are trying very hard to keep our #PostOffice open @bandq_help I think it so wrong that I can not purchase a sheet Acrylic Flat Glazing to protect us in which is deemed as essential service like other retailers are doing right now @NFSP_UK @PostOffice @NickTorfaen

[NFSP @NFSP_UK]

£20 million increase to subpostmaster remuneration secured by the NFSP.

[NFSP @NFSP_UK]

As Barclays' decision over cash withdrawals from post offices has been reversed - we'd like to send a really big thank you and well done to all of you who signed our petition.
@PostOfficeNews #accesstocash

[NFSP @NFSP_UK]

Barclays have reversed their decision to cease allowing customers to withdraw cash at post offices.

The NFSP has worked tirelessly in public and in private to help bring this about. We are delighted on behalf of subpostmasters and their customers.

Full statement to follow.

In debate on Barclays ending of its Post Office cash withdrawals initiated by @BishopStAlbans, key stat emerges: there are more post offices in rural areas than branches of all banks put together.
