As above would appreciate any comments. I've currently thought of soaking the entire Seat tube and leaving it for a few days.

Cheers

Turn Frame upside down, fill seat tube with plusgas through the BB, and leave for a couple of days.

Clamp offending post in vice, workmate or similar, use the frame for leverage.

When that fails try the same trick but with caustic soda... and PPE.
