Christmas Delivery Chaos.

Wondering where your present is? It could be at the bottom of this pile! Royal Mail is swamped by millions more parcels this year while truck tailbacks stretch 20 MILES at Dover and shoppers face online delivery chaos



One image posted on Twitter displayed the huge pile of Royal Mail sacks in Bristol (left). A second showed that sorting offices are so inundated that staff are having to stack items outside (top right in Essex), putting parcels at risk of being damaged by rain or even stolen. Union bosses are reporting similar scenes across the country. A massive switch to online shopping means there are an estimated 200million more parcels in the postal and courier system this year. Online orders are expected to be up by more than 50 per cent as internet festive shopping overtakes the high street for the first time. It comes as a scarcity of online supermarket delivery slots risks sending scores of Christmas dinner plans up in smoke. Bottom right is Royal Mail site in Manchester.
