This sell off is no different to GB selling the gold reserves at rock bottom prices.

The Royal Mail needs investment which the government are loath to commit to.
As a business it has been losing money..after all who posts letters anymore...but there is a vast increase in the number of parcels being handled.

It isn't only hedge fund managers who buy into such businesses, but pension funds and organisations also buy into them to make their money go further.

Please tell us what you would replace it with...and how would this work better.
I'm sure you will have an answer, you always seem to know what is coming..or so you would like us to believe.
