Further strike shuts Littlehampton Crown post office again

The union is organising a series of strikes against proposals to move many Crown post offices, including Littlehampton’s, into ‘partner’ businesses such as convenience stores.

Thousands of people in the town have signed a petition, started by the Labour party but now backed by all the main parties, opposing the relocation from The Arcade.

Last week the town’s MP Nick Gibb raised the issue in the House of Commons, calling on the Business Secretary Vince Cable to order Post Office Ltd to abandon the proposed move of the Littlehampton Crown post office.
