In London, some people are up in arms, or heads if you will. It seems that there is a bill before the parliament that could sell some parts of the Royal Postal Service to foreign buyers such as Germany or the Dutch. The sticking point is that the queen’s head may be cut off if this happens.
In 1967, a sculptor named Arnold Machin designed the stamp depicting the queen’s head. The stamp has been a mainstay of British stamps ever since. Some worry that the queens head stamp will no longer be available if the postal service is sold. Parliament will soon vote on a bill that will ensure the queens head stamp will remain wherever British stamps are made.
