Re: Statutory inquiry

Apart from the damage done to the Postmasters one of the most extraordinary and shocking aspects is that, having already cost the taxpayer £254million in legal fees and compensation (according to the Daily Mail) the PO is now paying huge legal fees to the likes of Peters and Peters and other legal firms to correct what should never have happened in the first place. For the government to continue to ignore calls for a statutory judge led enquiry is to my mind indefensible. Justice and accountability are paramount

Re: Johnsons fault or click bait?

Police Forces are paying the Home Office for centrally managed IT systems such as the Police National Computer System for which they are bearing a recent increase of just under 10% ,which is scandalous. Based on this event, rightly described by the PM, as "outrageous" Forces, as they try to keep the Public safe, should be receiving a reduced cost to reflect the extra work they will have to do to try to mitigate the effects of this disastrous deletion of records by the PNC.
