For the rest of you I hope you have all calmed down a little now that you have had a month to get used to the upheaval to normal daily life that the increase in postage stamps seems to have caused. We shall all have to accept this seismic change and, to use the current vernacular, “Get Over It!” Comparisons, of course, are odious but this will not stop me fouling the atmosphere with the fact that sending a postcard to your Auntie in the Orkneys, a thousand miles away, involving copious pieces of ridiculously expensive equipment, numerous vehicles with either eight, four or two wheels and in all probability one with a rudder, and the hands of at least a dozen humanoids is five times, I’ll say that again in big letters, FIVE TIMES! less expensive than a cold cappuccino in Cheltenham Spa. Now I know it’s a large hike and if the extra dosh generated was all going into a large pot marked ‘for the exclusive benefit of subpostmasters’ I might feel just a tiny twinge of empathy. No make that a big twinge. But there are reasons for the increase which I shall rehearse below briefly and then duck down while you hurl abuse at the offending paragraph. Right two things; one, the price of stampage should have gone up more over the years but didn’t because ‘they’ (offpost, offcom, offhead, whatever) wouldn’t let ‘us’ (Her Majesty’s retailers). The cost of stamps, therefore, was kept artificially lower than the actual cost needed to run a profitable business. And two, the Royal Mail (please look away now Mrs K) is to be privatised probably around twenty fourteen, that’s the year and not just after eight o’clock, and no-one will want to buy it unless they can see their way to making a few bob. 7 O.K. now that you having finished ranting I shall lead you gently through the golden meadow that is the pricing structure of our new improved rates so that you will not be embarrassed when negotiating your next postal transaction.

  • Unemployment Bulletin Issue 147 October 2020
    Unemployment Bulletin Issue 147 October 2020 Notes on Claimant Count (Experimental Statistics) from ONS: These Claimant Count Experimental Statistics relate to 8 October 2020. Enhancements to Universal Credit as part of the UK government's response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) mean that an increasing number of people became eligible for unemployment-related benefit support, although still employed. Consequently changes in the Claimant Count will not be wholly because of changes in the number of people who are unemployed. We are not able to identify to what extent people who are employed or unemployed have affected the numbers. Contents The Claimant Count is a measure of the number of people who are unemployed and claiming benefits. From 1996 until the recent introduction Part 1: Summary 1 of Universal Credit, this was based on the number of people claiming A summary of unemployment Jobseeker’s Allowance. However, since its introduction some unemployment data at district, County, benefit claimants will be claiming Universal Credit instead. To reflect this regional and national level change, the Claimant Count has been expanded to include people claiming Part 2: County 3 Jobseeker's Allowance plus those who claim Universal Credit and who are Unemployment figures for the searching for work. County compared to the South West and the rest of Gloucestershire is in the process of transitioning to full Universal Credit. This the UK means a broader span of claimants will be required to look for work than Part 3: Districts 4 previously under Jobseekers Allowance. As more people are brought within A comparative break down of the coverage of Universal Credit, the Claimant Count is set to rise noticeably unemployment figures by over time.

  • Summer 2018 All Freetext Comments from Engagement Survey
    Outcome of Engagement Report – Summer 2018 All freetext comments from engagement survey respondents I think that the new community hospital should be in or near Cinderford because: It is central to the forest It is the most accessible part of the forest when there is severe weather. It is a central location within the forest, with good connections to other areas of the forest and wider Gloucestershire. It would make transferring between hospitals easier for patients. as part of my work role I cover the Forest of Dean currently based at the Dilke, on a one hour response time I can be anywhere in the Forest within this time frame based in either Coleford or Cinderford its central to North Forest - Maisemore, Corse, etc. More of a community area. This seems a better option as it is central to the forest and would be accessible to many. it would be in our locality and easiest to reach. It has good communications and is closest to my locality ITS CENTRAL TO THE WHOLE FOD CATCHMENT AREA Cinderford is a central location for residents across the FOD, when you take in locations in the Forest such as Newent, Coleford or Lydney would be too far to travel. It is in the most central location, with reasonably good public transport. If it was in Lydney this would be difficult for some people to access, especially people from Newent and surrounding areas. It is situated centrally between Lydney and Gloucester Central to the Forest. Close to area of high deprivation who may otherwise struggle to access healthcare.
