Talk:United Kingdom Postmaster General

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I was really confused for a while, because I had read something about Geoffrey Robinson being the Postmaster General before he resigned a couple of years ago, but as this post was abolished in 1969 he couldn't have been. I assumed that the post may have been re-established when BT was privatised. But I've now found the answer. It was a misprint and he was actually Paymaster General Mintguy

Edited page to get rid of Ernest Bevin as Postmaster General 1957-59. Though it is clearly inadequate to have "???" in place of an actual name in the list (and I'd invite anyone in the know to submit the real name), it's also pretty bad to include the name of a man who died six years before talking up a post.

Reference should have been to Reginald Bevins, and some of the surrounding dates were incorrect--George Burgess 12:58, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
