More details from petition creator

The Post Bank coalition is made up of the Communication Workers Union, Federation of Small Businesses, National Pensioners Convention, new economics foundation, public interest research centre, and Unite the Union. We believe there is now a unique opportunity to establish a state-backed Post Bank which serves both public and business interests while also securing the future of the Post Office. This Post Bank would offer a genuine alternative to current commercial banking products, providing both choice and opportunity.
