Open petition: Bring Royal Mail back into public ownership

Created by Peter knox
Closes on

Return Royal Mail to public ownership and publish a funded plan to secure a reliable, affordable universal postal service, with investment in delivery standards and fair employment conditions for postal workers.

Royal Mail is essential national infrastructure. People and businesses depend on it for medical appointments, important documents and everyday deliveries.

We believe public ownership would provide greater accountability and allow investment to focus on reliable deliveries, affordable postage and decent working conditions.

The Government should set out how it would acquire Royal Mail and fund a sustainable postal service serving every community.
