by Boris Cleck, news correspondent. (photo by Reg Snipe) Yesterday, for the third day running, hundreds of criminals gathered outside the main Brampton Post Office after the announcement of its impending closure. Banners were waved and the words "no closures here!" were chanted in unison by a hostile crowd of members from the Brampton Union of Resource Relocation Operatives. Speaking exclusively to the Bugle, Robin Gargoyle, spokesman for the thieves explained, "It's not fair, all our livelihoods are being eroded; the local Post Office is at the heart of the community and its closure will affect everyone from top to bottom. Professional armed robbers need it for practice as one of the few easy targets in the area; even the trainees, the lowly muggers and pickpockets would be affected as most of the defenceless old people walk there to collect their weekly pension money. Where are local youngsters expected to learn their chosen profession? It's a scandal, and one that should be probed deeply from all angles." *****  Brampton's criminals out in force |
