Campaigner suggests that embattled Royal Mail should be sold to Amazon for £1 -
Former sub-postmaster and lead campaigner Alan Bates has called for the Post Office to be sold to the likes of Amazon for £1 as he described it as "a dead duck".
He led a group of 555 sub-postmasters who took the Post Office to the High Court over the scandal, which was settled in December 2019.
The history and downfall of the Royal Mail. It's a monopoly, but how can it make losses most years. Well, it was publicly owned, and thus wasteful and it's major Achilles heal, suffered from Left Wing unions. So it was eventually privatised to save tax payers funds. So union strikes continued to erode the Royal Mail and then it's disastrous Siemens system has caused a humongous problem.
So if any American wants to know how a monopoly can fail, Left Wing Unions.
