Farron attacks "wholly inadequate" plans to replace Post Offices in Backbarrow and Greenodd
Local MP Tim Farron has today spoken out against Post Office Ltd plans for the Post Offices in Backbarrow and Greenodd, dubbing them "wholly inadequate." In a letter from the Post Office to one of Mr Farrons constituents, it was revealed that Post Office Ltd do not intend to upgrade Ulverston Post Office, despite persisting with plans to close the nearby branches in Greenodd and Leven Valley (Backbarrow); two branches which Mr Farron has fought hard to save. This has the potential to leave the people of Backbarrow and Greenodd not only without their own post offices but with no additional capacity at Ulverston to absorb the overspill.

He praised the Liberal Democrat run Council for acting so swiftly to replace the old Leisure Centre which had to be closed due to mining subsidence. The Council found all £8 Million out of its own resources where the previous Labour run council had failed for 7 years to get the money together to replace the former crumbling and dangerous building. Vince noted that not a penny had come from the Government or the Sport Lottery and that the over running costs of the London Olympics would mean constituencies around the country being star
