It's not posties' fault Royal Mail can't compete - Telegraph
It was returning money to the Treasury and then the markets had to be opened to competition unlike some other EU countries who avoided that I believe Germany France and Holland and now their National Post Offices are cherry picking profitable business in the UK - The German PO is Duestche Post or DHL (Privitised), France GeoPost or Parceline and the Dutch TNT recognise these names
