Australia Post special treatment

I heard of a major landlord yesterday demanding traders open on a Sunday for the full day. In the same centre the government owned Australia Post outlet is permitted to close even though around 90% of the floor space of this government retail business sells stationery, greeting cards, phones, books, office supplies and travel goods. Their competitors are forced to pay upwards of $25 per hour per employee to staff their businesses while Australia Post can close. This is another example of Australia Post exploiting their government ownership for an unfair advantage.
