The Kilmacanogue post office closed on Valentine’s Day without warning, the local residents quickly springing into action. That more and more people are choosing to receive their State pensions and child benefits payments directly into their bank accounts has merely added more fuel to the funeral pyre for small post offices. Part of a plan drawn up by businessman Bobby Kerr in the hope of stemming the national postal service’s €12m-a-year losses, it is believed that out of the 1,130 post offices nationwide, it’s the small rural operations – of which there is an estimated 500 – that are causing the major losses. The battle to save small post offices is a nationwide one, with eighty post offices facing the chop as part of a recommendation by the Government to ensure the survival of An Post. Over 1,000 signatures have been gathered in the hope of convincing the powers that be that this valuable asset in the village should not only reopen, but always remain. Postman There must be some word today From my boyfriend who's so far away Please, Mr.584 It was a proud young David Devine who walked into the GPO with Kilmacanogue’s Save Our Post Office petition. Unlike Mr Johnson, who was a postman for almost two decades, he is a wonk by profession. Mr Miliband may not have Mr Johnson’s gritty appeal, but if he cannot learn from it, he should step aside. Labour’s leader should ditch his starchy formulations and clich.

The former home secretary is also plain- spoken. Mr Miliband should acknowledge his own by presenting himself as leader of a team, not a one- man band (as is his wont). Mr Johnson is open about his limitations, always voicing them when invited to stand for the leadership. But he should take two lessons from the man who could usurp him, but chooses not to. Mr Miliband’s wonkish nature is as unavoidable as are the international political trends afflicting his party. Britons thought that Mr Miliband was ready to be prime minister the lowest figure for a leader of the opposition since the polling firm started asking voters that question in 1. A poll published the day before by Ipsos MORI suggested that just 1. That cautiously methodological approach, though ideal in a policy adviser, has hampered Mr Miliband’s attempts to make his analysis of the British economy resonate with voters. While working as an adviser to Mr Brown in the Treasury, he helped oversee a list of possible budget policies, reviewing them from every tactical and economic angle.

Yet the Labour leader’s personal weakness is certainly one of his party’s biggest problems. And mainstream parties across Europe are losing votes, as Labour is, to smaller, insurgent parties. Mr Brown bequeathed his party a terrible reputation for economic management. It would be unfair to hold Mr Miliband exclusively responsible for his party’s problems. His dismal speech at the party’s autumn conference, combined with a collapsing poll lead over the Conservatives, triggered Labour’s latest bout of soul- searching. He struggles to inspire voters-a shortcoming that became especially evident in the run- up to the European elections in May and Scotland’s referendum on independence in September. MPs and shadow ministers grumble that his office is chaotic and unresponsive. He has failed to persuade voters of his competence, particularly on the economy. Doubts about him have swirled for most of his four- year- old leadership. The recent briefings against Mr Miliband were the intensification of a long- standing trend. Without a figurehead, the coup did not deserve the name.Įven so, that Labour’s leader owes his job to an older man’s lack of appetite for it is indicative of his poor standing in the party. Mr Johnson has ruled out replacing Mr Miliband first in a statement on November 8th, then in a newspaper article on November 1. He helped his master launch them against Tony Blair when Mr Brown was chancellor of the exchequer, and then withstand them once he had become prime minister.
