Full shift to electric vans would melt Royal Mail's London hub, MPs told

sounded logical but.....

I don't somehow think there are 49000 or so vans etc all parked up at Mt. Pleasant. And of course there aren't, despite the headline they are talking about the Mt. Pleasant share of the vehicles.

Most of the vehicles would be in lots of other locations. Can Mt. Pleasant switch a proportion? Of course it could. And my local sorting office charge a few? Of course they could and so on. It sort of annoys me when the 100% rule is used to avoid a change. Sometimes that might be fair enough ( no country is going to switch to driving on the right a bit at a time). But usually "letting perfection be the enemy of good" is an excuse for inaction.
