The Labour Party is in deep shit over Voldemort's proposals to flog off part of the Post Office to the Dutch firm TNT.
The Post Office needs serious injections of cash and good management, it is grossly over-manned and inefficient and has obstructive and militant unions. Forced by the EUSSR the government gave away much of it's profitable business to private operators and the banks, and is now saddled with a headache.
At least 3 cabinet minsters and close to 150 backbench Labour MPs have come out against Voldemort's proposals, but with the backing of the Tories Mandy and Gordon can force the legislation through if they want to.
The cost will be splitting the Labour Party and losing the Brothers.
Large Tub of Popcorn!

You are missing the bigger picture Penguin. The EU have already decreed what must happen to the post office and the tories will obey their masters and vote with the government.

No, didn't miss it at all.
It's still going to be fun watching the Brothers and the Comrades tear each other apart.
The Post Office was a moribund dump when I briefly shirked there a few centuries ago, reeking of Buggin's Turn, Dead Man's Shoes, over manning, poor management, militant unions - all suckling on a vast monoploy (even had the Telephone Monoploy as well, used to take years to get a phone line).
