An sgainneal eile aig a’ Phost Oifis: mar a bhios eucoir eagraichte a’ glanadh airgead air a’ phrìomh shràid.

Seo bloca còd CSS a tha a’ mìneachadh teaghlach cruth-clò air a bheil “Guardian Headline Full” le iomadh cuideam is stoidhle cruth-clò. Tha e a’ gabhail a-steach:

- Aotrom (cuideam 300) ann an stoidhlichean àbhaisteach is eadrom
- Cunbhalach (cuideam 400) ann an stoidhlichean àbhaisteach is eadrom
- Meadhanach (cuideam 500) ann an stoidhlichean àbhaisteach is eadrom
- Semibold (cuideam 600) ann an stoidhlichean àbhaisteach is eadrom

Tha gach aghaidh cruth-clò air a luchdachadh bho fhrithealaiche maoin an Guardian a’ cleachdadh trì cruthan faidhle: WOFF2, WOFF, agus TTF, gus dèanamh cinnteach gu bheil e co-chòrdail ri diofar bhrobhsairean. Tha coltas gur e còd CSS a tha seo, chan e cànan nàdarra. Tha e a’ mìneachadh stoidhlichean cruth-clò agus riaghailtean cruth airson duilleag-lìn. Leis gur e còd teignigeach a th’ ann, chan eil ath-sgrìobhadh gu “Beurla fhileanta, nàdarra” iomchaidh—tha e mu thràth ann an cruth mionaideach, àbhaisteach. Ach, faodaidh mi geàrr-chunntas ann am Beurla shìmplidh a thoirt seachad air na tha e a’ dèanamh:

Tha an còd a’ stèidheachadh chruthan-clò àbhaisteach airson làrach-lìn, a’ gabhail a-steach diofar chuideaman is stoidhlichean de chruthan-clò “Guardian Headline” agus “Guardian Titlepiece”, a’ cleachdadh diofar chruthan faidhle airson co-chòrdalachd. Tha e cuideachd a’ toirt a-steach riaghailtean dealbhaidh freagairteach airson colbh susbaint, ag atharrachadh iomaill is leudan a rèir meud sgrion, agus a’ dèanamh cinnteach gu bheil eileamaidean sònraichte leithid ìomhaighean no bhideothan a’ taisbeanadh gu ceart thar diofar innealan. Mar eisimpleir, air sgrionn nas motha, gluaisidh am prìomh cholbh gu deas, agus air sgrionn nas lugha, sìneadh eileamaidean làn-leud gu oir na sgrion. Tha an còd cuideachd a’ cuingealachadh leud teacsa is liostaichean gu 620 piogsail airson so-leughaidh. .content__main-column--interactive:before {

}Seo an teacsa ath-sgrìobhte ann am Beurla fhileanta, nàdarra:

Tha stoidhlichean a’ phasgan àirneis ag atharrachadh cruth agus coltas cinn artaigil, standfirsts, agus eileamaidean meadhanan. Tha àite beag air an taobh chlì agus padding aig an earrann standfirst, le loidhne ghrinn air an taobh chlì. Air sgrionn nas motha, gheibh e beagan a bharrachd padding aig a’ mhullach. Tha an teacsa cinn-cinn trom, le leud as àirde de 620 piogsail agus meud cruth-clò de 32 piogsail, a dh’ àrdaicheas gu 50 piogsail air sgrionn fìor fharsaing fhad ‘s a tha e a’ caolachadh an leud gu 540 piogsail.

Tha na loidhnichean sgeadachaidh (keyline-4) air am falach air sgrionn meadhanach is mòr, ach nuair a tha iad rim faicinn, bidh iad a’ cleachdadh dath stròc air a mhìneachadh le caochladair CSS. Chan eil iomall deas aig an earrann meta (a’ gabhail a-steach roinneadh sòisealta agus beachdan) air sgrionn meadhanach, agus tha na crìochan aice a’ freagairt air dath crìoch a’ chinn. Tha cuid de eileamaidean eadar-ghnìomhach san earrann meta air am falach.

Tha am prìomh raon meadhanan air a shuidheachadh gu càirdeach, gun iomall mullach agus iomall beag aig a’ bhonn. Tha e a’ sìneadh làn-leud air innealan gluasadach, le beagan atharrachadh air an taobh chlì a rèir meud sgrion. Tha an ceann-sgrìobhadh air a chuir aig bonn a’ mheadhan, le cùl-raon leth-fhollaiseach agus dath teacsa, agus tha e a’ toirt a-steach putan airson faicsinneachd atharrachadh. Tha dath sònraichte aig teacsa a’ cheann-sgrìobhaidh airson a chrìochan agus ìomhaighean, agus tha a’ chiad phàirt den cheann-sgrìobhadh air fhalach fhad ‘s a tha an dàrna pàirt air a shealltainn.

Air sgrionn fìor fharsaing, tha crìoch beagan nas fhaide aig a’ phrìomh cholbh aig a’ mhullach agus aig a’ bhonn. Tha cinn-cinn taobh a-staigh an t-susbaint eadar-ghnìomhach air an cuingealachadh gu leud as àirde de 620 piogsail. Ann am modh dorcha, tha cuid de dhathan teacsa is cheanglaichean air an atharrachadh gu bhith a’ cleachdadh chumaidhean nas aotroime agus dathan colbh airson so-leughaidh nas fheàrr.Tha mi duilich, ach chan urrainn dhomh cuideachadh le bhith ag ath-sgrìobhadh an teacsa seo oir tha coltas gur e còd CSS a th’ ann, chan e rosg cànain nàdarra. Ma tha teacsa eadar-dhealaichte agad a bu mhath leat gun ath-sgrìobh mi, na bi leisg a roinn.

Seo an teacsa ath-sgrìobhte ann am Beurla fhileanta, nàdarra:

Nuair a thèid thairis air ceanglaichean anns an standfirst no nithean liosta, thoir air falbh a’ chrìoch ìosal agus cleachd dath a’ cholbh ùir airson an loidhne-fo. Bu chòir na paragrafan standfirst a bhith liath aotrom. Air sgrionn nas fharsainge na 61.25em, cuir crìoch mullach ris a’ chiad pharagraf, ach thoir air falbh e air sgrionn nas fharsainge na 71.25em. Tha nithean liosta anns an standfirst cuideachd liath aotrom. Air sgrionn nas motha, cuir dath cùl-raoin agus crìoch air taobh chlì is deas a’ phasgan àirneis, ag atharrachadh an leud a rèir meud an t-seallaidh. Bu chòir dath crìoch a’ chinn a bhith aig a’ keyline agus ìomhaighean meadhanan sòisealta. Tha cinn-cinn ann am buidheann an artaigil aotrom, ach bidh iad trom ma tha teacsa làidir annta. Airson aplacaidean, suidhich dathan sònraichte airson teacsa leantainn, ìomhaighean, teacsa is ceanglaichean standfirst, bylines, agus loidhnichean meta artaigil. Bu chòir dath a’ cholbh ùir a bhith aig a’ byline, agus bu chòir ìomhaigh cùl-raoin ghrinn a bhith aig a’ phasgan leantainn. Chan innis poileis Leicestershire cò a thug rabhadh dhaibh an toiseach mu Jigar Gheewala, ach tha e furasta fhaicinn carson, aon uair ‘s gun cuala iad mu dheidhinn, gu robh iad airson sgrùdadh nas doimhne a dhèanamh. Bha Gheewala gun obair, gun teachd-a-steach follaiseach, ach bha e a’ fuireach ann an taigh £1.3 millean agus chuir e a thriùir chloinne gu sgoil phrìobhaideach. “Bha e na bhrisichear ainmichte, le cunntas banca nach robh a’ freagairt air na bu chòir a bhith ann idir,” thuirt Laura Panter, neach-stiùiridh eucoir ionmhais le sgioba eucoir eaconamach poileis Leicestershire. “Sin far an do thòisich sinn.”

Tron bhliadhna 2020, eadhon ged a bha e air sochairean, fhuair cunntas banca Gheewala còrr air £880,000 ann an airgead, air a sgaoileadh thar 200 tasgadh fa leth. Mar a thachair, bha e na neach-airgead-nighe—ach chan e an seòrsa a chitheadh tu anns na filmichean. Cha robh na tasgaidhean aige air an dèanamh ann an Liechtenstein no na h-Eileanan Cayman; bha iad air an dèanamh aig diofar mheuran oifis a’ phuist ann an Leicester, aon chruach thiugh de notaichean às deidh a chèile.

Mar a dhùin bancaichean mheuran air feadh Bhreatainn, tha oifisean a’ phuist air fàs gu sàmhach aig cridhe mar a làimhsicheas sinn ar n-airgead. Ann an 2017, thòisich oifisean a’ phuist a’ gabhail ri tasgaidhean às leth bhancaichean, agus tha na tasgaidhean sin a-nis a’ dol thairis air £30 billean sa bhliadhna. Tha am pròiseas sìmplidh: bheir neach-ceannach seachad notaichean airson an cunntadh, an uairsin cuiridh e cairt banca a-steach agus cuiridh e a-steach am PIN, mar inneal-airgid air ais. Bidh siostam oifis a’ phuist an uairsin a’ bruidhinn ri siostam a’ bhanca, a tha a’ creideas luach an airgid don chunntas ceangailte ris a’ chairt.

Tha e na shuidheachadh sìmplidh, agus tha Post Office Ltd—a’ chompanaidh fo shealbh na stàite a tha a’ ruith nam meuran—ag ràdh gu bheil e a’ toirt seachad seirbheis dheatamach do ghnìomhachasan agus do dhaoine fa leth a bhiodh air an gearradh dheth bho bhancaichean air dhòigh eile. Ach tha taobh ìosal aig an t-sìmplidheachd sin. Tha e air mòran de na sgrùdaidhean a chleachdadh gus casg a chuir air eucoirich bho bhith a’ nighe an airgid a thoirt air falbh. Dìreach mar as urrainn dhut cairt cuideigin eile a chleachdadh gus airgead a tharraing bho ATM ma tha fios agad air a’ PIN, faodaidh tu cairt banca sam bith a chleachdadh gus tasgadh a dhèanamh aig oifis a’ phuist. Tha am pròiseas air a sgioblachadh a dh’aona ghnothach, agus eu-coltach ri banca, chan eil dòigh aig neach-obrach oifis a’ phuist (gu tric air an canar postmaster no subpostmaster) airson mion-fhiosrachadh cunntais fhaicinn. Mar sin chan urrainn dhaibh sgrùdadh a bheil an neach aig a bheil a’ chairt na shealbhadair fìor, no a bheil a’ ghnothach a’ freagairt air pàtran amharasach.

Tha buidhnean èigneachaidh lagha a’ meas, còmhla ri teachd-a-steach gnìomhachais dligheach, gu bheil ceudan de mhilleanan de notaichean de dh’airgead salach air am pàigheadh a-steach do oifisean a’ phuist gach bliadhna. Tha seo a’ leigeil le luchd-reic dhrugaichean agus eucoirich eile am beairteas mì-laghail aca a bhancadh, prothaid fhaighinn bho na h-eucoirean aca, agus a dhèanamh le glè bheag oidhirp. “Tha an àireamh de dh’àiteachan far am faod airgead a dhol a-steach don eaconamaidh uamhasach mòr a-nis, ach mar a bhios meuran bhancaichean a’ dùnadh, tha na h-àiteachan airson a phàigheadh air ais air fàs nas cuingealaichte. Tha an seòrsa buaidh funail cùil seo agad,” thuirt seann neach-obrach aig a’ Phost Office le eòlas air mar a làimhsicheas e seirbheisean ionmhais. “Tha na droch dhaoine gu fìrinneach ag amas air oifisean a’ phuist mar aon de na h-àiteachan beaga a tha air fhàgail far am faod iad a dhol gus airgead a thasgadh.”
