Podcasts about Post office

The Royals get the SWEEP! You love to see it! Bob also fills us in on his post office trip yesterday... It's always something crazy when Bob is in the building.

Bob always has the most interesting experiences at random places. That happened again yesterday. Plus, the Royals stayed hot with another win! Bob and Dusty disagree on a possible addition for the Royals. And we talk some NFL uniform rankings.

No Economic Block on Irish UnityIn recent years there have been encouraging signs of growing support for Irish unity in successive electoral results, demographic changes, contributions from civic society, in opinion polling and in public commentary. Unsurprisingly, any debate on unity quickly focuses on practical issues like the economic viability of a united Ireland as well as on the future of a health and care system, governance structures, education, the environment and other matters.Sinn Féin's Commission on the Future of Ireland recently held a successful conference examining the issue of health in a new Ireland and the party produced a widely welcomed health and care document looking to a future all-island model. It is available at  https://sinnfein.ie/the-case-for-an-irish-national-health-and-care-service/And now we have the report by Professor John Doyle of Dublin City University – ‘The Projected Public Finances of the Early Years of a United Ireland, and the Northern Ireland Subvention.' The report is the product of joint research by Dublin City University and Ulster University's Economic Policy Centre. It succeeds in cutting through much of the jargon associated with economics to present a cogent explanation of the economic benefits of a united Ireland.The Future of the GPOMicheál Martin's ten-year plan for the GPO site in Dublin is shameful. His effort to sell the plan as a flagship project for Dublin City Centre, that will protect the historic and cultural significance of the GPO, was described by the Irish Times as “vague and ill-defined.” Mary Lou McDonald and others have been much more vocal and direct in their condemnation of the government's plans. Martin's proposal, for example, that the upper floors of the GPO will be turned into office space, makes no sense when much of the available office space in central Dublin is currently unused and vacant.The reality is that the GPO holds a special place in the nation's soul. It may have been a Post Office for all of its two hundred years but it is more than just another of those Dublin buildings that reflect the capitals colonial past. It is acknowledged by generations of Irish people as the birthplace of the Republic, as envisaged in the Proclamation. For over one hundred years it has symbolised the hopes, aspirations and vision of that historic document and of the courage of the men and women who risked everything in April 1916.World Premier in Galway of ‘A Ballymurphy Man'This weekend I will be in Galway for the 37th annual international Galway Film Fleadh/Festival.

MPs demand answers over Post Office scandal

Nadat Trump vannacht bekendmaakte dat Amerika TOCH weer wapens gaat leveren aan Oekraïne, stuurt nu ook Zweden nieuwe wapens. Het gaat om tien zogenoemde Archer-kanonnen. De Europese Commissie en Amerika nemen meer tijd om tot een handelsakkoord te komen. Dat heeft Eurocommissaris Dombrovskis vanmiddag gezegd. De deadline LAG op morgen, maar die is nu verschoven naar 1 augustus. Netanyahu nomineert Trump voor de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede. Iets waar Trump al langere tijd op aast, maar kan het werkelijkheid worden? De gevolgen van het Post Office-schandaal - waarbij honderden postkantoor-beheerders ten onrechte zijn beschuldigd van diefstal - zijn rampzalig! Dat is de harde conclusie van een rapport over dit schandaal dat vanmiddag is gepresenteerd. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In today's episode, Sir Peter Jackson is backing an ambitious project effort to bring back the Moa from extinction, and it is being led Ngāi Tahu, Canterbury Museum, and Colossal Biosciences; Health New Zealand has backed down on plans to give Wellington Hospital maternity beds to ED patients; over 15 years, more than 900 Post Office branch managers were wrongly prosecuted for theft and false accounting, because of the faulty Horizon IT software they were required to use; US President Donald Trump has doubled down on his new tariff deadline of August 1st, posting on social media that "there will be no change" to the date, and "no extensions will be granted"; why are so many Kiwis interested in a state-based Australian rugby league series?; and the Cardrona Hotel is proving to be hot property - if its Trade Me views are anything to go by.

Over 15 years, more than 900 Post Office branch managers were wrongly prosecuted for theft and false accounting, because of the faulty Horizon IT software they were required to use. Former subpostmaster from Hull in England, who was wrongly jailed for theft, Janet Skinner spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

The public inquiry into the Post Office Horizon scandal has published its first report into what went wrong and how the victims should be properly compensated.     The inquiry's chair, Sir Wyn Williams, has found that at least 13 postmasters may have taken their own lives after being accused of wrongdoing based on evidence from the Horizon IT system which both the Post Office and its maker, Fujitsu, knew could be false.    In today's episode Niall Paterson speaks to our business correspondent Paul Kelso about just how damning these findings are and also to former postmistress Janet Skinner who was sent to prison after wrongly being accused of stealing £59,000.   Anyone feeling emotionally distressed or suicidal can call Samaritans for help on 116 123 or email jo@samaritans.org in the UK.

This is the fourth episode of a new podcast series curated by TechCentral's editorial team and generated by artificial intelligence tools. It's an experiment that's in beta for now, but if it works well, we'll consider making it a regular feature by launching a season 1. In this episode, we highlight some of the biggest technology news stories from South Africa and the world over the last week, as covered by TechCentral. Note that even using the most accurate and reliable sources, AI can and will occasionally make mistakes. In this episode, we look at: • Takealot's talks about hiring thousands of retrenched Post Office employees to support its e-commerce expansion plans; • Why South Africans' use of cash is costing the economy billions of rand a year, according to the Reserve Bank; • City Power's plan to roll out electric vehicle charging stations in Johannesburg; • The Internet Service Providers' Association's view of communications minister Solly Malatsi's plan to introduce equity equivalence in licensing in the ICT sector; • Intel's pivot to the “14A” manufacturing technology and what it means in its fight with TSMC for foundry customers; • Bank Zero's sale to Lesaka Technologies; and • The mental health impact of AI chatbots. Again, this podcast is experimental. We welcome your feedback. Would you like this podcast to become a regular feature? Is there anything you'd like us to improve? Is it too short or too long?

This is a really special episode and one I'm honoured to be trusted with. Because my guest today is Jo Hamilton, one of more than 700 British sub postmasters who was prosecuted between 2000 and 2014 by the Post Office. Falsely accused of stealing £36,000 Jo was ordered to put right a wrong she hadn't committed, forced to remortgage her house and borrow from anyone she could in order to repay money that she had never taken. But it wasn't just money. Jo lost so much more. Her confidence, her trust, her reputation, and ultimately, she believes, her parents. Last year, Jo was immortalised by Monica Dolan who played her in the  Groundbreaking TV drama, Mr Bates v The Post Office.  It was a drama that achieved what only the very best TV can - it put the plight of the sub postmasters at the heart of every conversation - on TV, in the papers, on line, at the bus stop, by the coffee machine. Suddenly Everyone was talking about it. Now her conviction overturned and her debts paid off, Jo has written Why Are You Here Mrs Hamilton? It's an extraordinary first hand account of how she built a local shop and post office which became the heart of her community and how it was stolen from her. Jo joined me to talk candidly about the life upending experience and how the last twenty years have changed her. From an ordinary woman who loved people and horses to a ferocious campaigner who will not stop fighting until every last sub postmaster is paid. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, including Why Are You Here Mrs Hamilton? as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls at Pineapple Production.

Wrongful convictions in the Post Office scandal and for train fare evasion have been described by the Government as ‘catastrophic failures', and it's held a consultation in England and Wales to reform private prosecutions. It covers private prosecutions brought by organisations, and also, the SJP - the single justice procedure - where a minor criminal offence is decided by a magistrate behind closed doors. Tens of thousands of rail fines have been quashed, after train companies were found to have misused the SJP system. So how should private prosecutions be reformed? Also on the programme: how "No Further Action" and police cautions can leave a lasting mark on safeguarding and criminal records checks. (Note that in Scotland, the nearest equivalent to a police caution is a Procurator Fiscal warning which is usually issued for low level offences such as street drinking or breach of the peace).Presenter: Dr Joelle Grogan Producers: Ravi Naik and Charlotte Rowles Editors: Tara McDermott and Nick Holland Contributors: Dr Jonathan Rogers, part of the campaign group Criminal Justice Reform Now and Co-Deputy Director of the Cambridge Centre for Criminal Justice Tristan Kirk court correspondent at the London Evening Standard Nathalie Potter head of DBS at Olliers solicitors in Manchester

Can a quick political win keep the public on side while the hard work happens behind the scenes? This week on Ex-Ministers' Questions, Ed Balls and George Osborne debate whether Labour's lack of early symbolic moves has cost them public goodwill - and whether a bit of political theatre can actually make or break a government.They also tackle questions from across the UK and the US: how can Kemi Badenoch rebuild morale in a bruised Conservative Party? What's the right way to pitch bold economic ideas in a divided world? And who really decides where government contracts go - ministers or mandarins?Plus: a look back at Keynes's legacy with HM Treasury's Mario Pisani, a tip of the hat to Mr Bates vs the Post Office, and Ed's run-in with a very enthusiastic listener at Harvard.And a reminder, we're doing our first Political Currency live show - we'll be taking to the stage on Thursday 5th June 2025 at SXSW London.

The Irish Postmasters' Union has warned that without funding of €15 million per year for the next five years, post offices around the country face “rapid, unrestrained closures”.Ian Guider, Columnist with the Business Post, joined Matt for Wednesday's business news.Hit the ‘Play' button on this page to hear the conversation.

Post Offices say they can contribute more to local communities and the economy, if they're properly funded. A significant new report commissioned by the Irish Postmasters Union has found the network needs around 15 million euro a year over the next 5 years. With that Post Offices could provide even more essential services, as well as government services. IPU President Seán Martin, says that works out as less than the price of a cup of coffee per citizen. To find out more Alan Morrissey was joined by Tom O'Callaghan, Chairman of the Independent Postmasters Group and Clarecastle Fianna Fail Councillor.

Sean Martin, President of the Irish Postmaster's Union, discusses the investment needed to secure the future of the service.

The history of the United States Postal Service as it plays out in the streets of New York City -- from the first post road to the first postage stamps. From the most beautiful post office in the country to the forgotten Gilded Age landmark that was once considered the ugliest post office.The postal service has always served as the country's circulatory system, linking the densest urban areas to the most rural outposts, a necessary link in moments when the country feels very far apart in other ways. The early American colonies knew this. Benjamin Franklin knew this The Founding Fathers who placed the postal service within the Constitution knew this.And inventions such as the stagecoach, the steamship, the railroad, the pneumatic tube and even the electric car have helped keep the mail steadily flowing over the centuries.New York has even played a pivotal role in the development of the American mail service, from the creation of the Boston Post Road (the first mail road which snaked through Manhattan and the Bronx) to the first mail boxes. Even the first postage stamps were sold in New York -- within former church-turned-post office in lower Manhattan.Why are there so many post offices from the 1930s? Why is New York's largest post office next to Penn Station? And why does New York City have so many individual ZIP codes? And who, pray tell, is Barnabas Bates?Visit our website for more information and imagesMore information here on the Bowery Boys: Gilded Age Weekend This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon

This week, in Longmont, Colorado, a mailman is horribly murdered, while on his daily route, in broad daylight. Detectives wonder who could be that mad at a postal carrier, but soon find out that there was one particular person, who had several reasons to want him dead. An electronic trail lets police follow the murder, and know exactly who did what, and when. This uncovers a nasty plot, that had been in the works, for months!!Along the way, we find out that nothing is actually close to Denver, that you don't want to be dying around people who won't even give you CPR, and that you can't kill people in front of 10 different doorbell cameras, and not expect to get caught!!New episodes every Thursday!Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.comGo to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports!Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/smalltownpodinstagram.com/smalltownmurderAlso, check out James & Jimmie's other show, Crime In Sports!
