Greenwich Liberal Democrats are campaigning against plans to close 5 Post Offices across the Borough.
Following thousands of Post Office closures during recent years, Gordon Brown's Labour Government now say that a further 2,500 are to close, and 169 of those are in London - 20% of all Post Offices in London.
Liberal Democrat London Assembly spokesperson, Cllr Brian Robson said, "The Liberal Democrats believe that local post offices provide a vital community service and that the Government should do everything it can to stop these latest wave of closures. We need as many people as possible to sign our petition and support the campaign."
London Mayoral candidate, Brian Paddick said: "Post offices are often the heart of a local community and we must all do our utmost to preserve them.
"The trouble with economic arguments is that they leave people out of the equation and they are the most important part. "Many people rely on a local post office, and to close 20% of London's post offices just shows a complete disregard for the needs of the local community."
The Post Offices under threat in Greenwich are: - 263 Eltham High St - 119 Plumstead Common Rd - 11 Blackheath Hill - 8 Woolwich Rd - 43 Bostal Hill
