After 25 years of service to Kentisbeare and the surrounding area Richard Kemp has been told he will be removed from his rounds as he is apparently too slow. Richard has been a valued and much loved member of the village life for many many years and will be greatly missed. As well as an online petition there is also a paper version in the village pub and shop. Please spread the word and get as many signatures as possible. Many thanks

LET RICHARD KEEP HIS ROUND - absolutely dreadful to treat such a loyal RM employee who refused to strike when others did and who works so hard and diligently at his job. Since when does 28 years of faithful service count for nothing?

Richard is a wonderful postman - always helpful and cheerful and knows everyone by name. If he is slower than average, it's for a good reason: he is happy to stop for a friendly chat, and this is much appreciated by many.

In Kerswell Richard provides the best service I have ever received from a postman and enhances my belief in the quality and security of service from RM. Surely he should be rewarded by RM, not, as it seems to me, punished for doing such a good job.

What a disgusting situation Richard finds himself in after such commitment to his work..the reason given for this is even more ridiculous.WHenever Richard is on holiday the post goes to ruin so let's see how quick and accurate the temporary replacement is

I wonder if the powers that be have factored in rurality and the fact that this guy may be the only person some people may see all week to have a chat with. In the country the post turns up when it turns up , got a problem with this then go live in the town!

Richard provides a reliable and friendly service to us all! Royal Mail should be recognising him for his continuous hard work and commitment on his round! This all sounds like poor decision making from a privatised firm who has profit above its customers and colleagues.

I really love all the great effor you put into ipetitions.com. I promised one of my mentors that I pass this secret along. I have something very special that only you can know it. Intriguing right? Don't worry it will not take a lot of your time but don't ignore it because it was really hard for me to find. See what belongs to you. https://fasttrafficsolutions.xyz Regards, https://fasttrafficsolutions.xyz

To get rid of a fine ambassador is a very short-sighted move. Please reinstate our much loved postie.
