    What I always love about this time of the electoral cycle is how they all suddenly hit upon the real problems and answers needed to solve them

    Then they get elected and it's instantly (conveniently) forgotten!
    Now now , it’s only forgotten until the next election!

    Parts of the economy are booming

    Local businesses are struggling with insurance, local towns are full of people commuting an hour away to work

    Could the postman collect letters on his route?

    All they need is a postbox in the village, the local shop could sell stamps.

    its not just about letters though. There is bills, there is collections of payments and you'd be surprised of the social element with the post office in rural villages too. For many its the only human connection they might have all week. Not being dramatic or anything its the reality
