Calendar Royal Mail

The MP for Great Grimsby and Cleethorpes says staff were told to clear a Royal Mail sorting office to give the impression there was 'nothing to see'.

Royal Mail said it had 'contingency plans' after Raac was found in the roof of the office in Barnsley.

The Royal Mail is trialling the use of electric vans for parcel and letter deliveries, with the aim of cutting emissions. The company is partnering with the London Electric Vehicle Company to trial its prototype electric van.
