Hampton post office
James NEWBURY (Brighton) (15:43): The Hampton community was outraged when Australia Post announced its intention to close the Hampton post office in late April. As we know, Australia Post is a federal government-owned entity that makes a financial windfall. Therefore the decision is ultimately within the control of the federal Labor government, yet the communications minister has refused to stop the closure. Federal Labor have proved their contempt for Hampton.
