Royal Mail Postman ‘Put Reform Fliers in the Bin’
26th April 2026
Royal Mail has launched an investigation into allegations that a postman boasted he had “dumped” Reform UK leaflets in a dustbin.
The postal service said it would look into claims that one of its employees attempted to sabotage a door-to-door delivery of the party’s local election campaign literature.
Lawyers acting for Reform UK wrote to Alistair Cochrane, the chief executive of Royal Mail, to raise the “suspected serious incident of apparent deliberate misconduct”.
It doesn’t take a conspiracy. All government employees know which side their bread is buttered on.
