I wouldn’t say having a shop front is a conflict of interest and postal agents exist as is so I only see it as removing a piece of a public utility in favour of privatisation.
Generally speaking, privatising public infrastrucure causes issues and added expense for consumers, less stable jobs and removes the benefit of the public investment.
What a completely unnecessary division of labour and commerce.
Privatisation sucks.
I’m not sure I agree with this statement.
Our post office allows you to post packages with several different postal networks, including Royal Mail and Evri.
By decoupling the shop from the network, they can now do more without the conflict of interest from Royal Mail.
