MP launches petition against Post Office closure
The branch in Brandon Parade, Motherwell, is one of the 37 under threat, with Mrs Fellows currently awaiting a response from Post Office chief executive Paula Vennells over why it was chosen for franchising.
Among the questions in her letter, Mrs Fellows wishes to know how profitable the branch is; who the Post Office has spoken to about franchising the branch; and if they will work with the council to secure a future for the branch.
