Royal Mail hike price of stamps - first and second class affected

Royal Mail has today said that both first class and second class stamps will go up in price on January 1. Customers have taken to social media to share their thoughts on the news.
“These changes are necessary to help ensure the sustainability of the one-price-goes-anywhere universal service.”
Prices for parcels, signed-for-letters and other postal items will also go up.
Royal Mail said that despite the small increase, they still were “among the best value in Europe,” for stamp prices.
However some customers were not happy about the increase, with people taking to Twitter to share their concerns.
