We all know how things work in this country. If you are charged with breaking the law and end up in court, you have a much better chance of walking free if you are guilty and wealthy than you would if you were innocent and poor. Vennels, Parker, Davey, Crozier and all the other senior Post Office managers who presided over this outrageous scandal are unlikely to receive any punishment. They will employ top lawyers who will do whatever it takes to keep them out of court. The people responsible for this cover up/fraud/scandal/ huge miscarriage of justice will simply lie low for a while and then, in a few years time, when the media interest has all died down, they will walk into very well paid jobs somewhere else. That is the way of things in Britain.

Look at the courts and how they can authorize euthanizing disabled babies against the parents' wishes because it will cost the government. Murderers stay in prison for life and it costs millions, but a disabled baby is executed because the courts and hospitals/government won't let the parents take their babies home.

😅 4:54 After returning her award and not appointed as the Bishop of London, Revd Vennells was then appointed to another prestigious role by the Archbishop, as reported in the Church Times. I assume he will be giving a statement, at his convenience, as to why this was done ? The damage done by Revd. Vennells and her cohorts is more than appalling and a stain on the CofE's reputation, diminishing the many good works it does, such as setting up Food Banks, opening centres for the homeless plus many other much needed community services addresssing ills in society, mostly carried out by the laity. Church Leadership requires of itself to demonstrate the highest moral and ethical values to all its followers at all times. Let us hope it will explain its stance in this matter.
I seems to me everyone is saying UK gov should pay. It should be squarely on Fujitsu. They built a rubbish system witha backdoor. On whose orders did they do that?
Agreed but those in the PO's covered this up and became corporate serial killers. Every asset they own and their pension should be stripped from them to help pay compensation.
Nothing will happen to her. No executives will be held responsible. It will happen again. ETA: Vennells and the executives responsible will lead lead long, happy and affluent lives.

Surely there must be custodial sentences handed out to those within Post Office people top down who knew things but did nothing to stop it. It's frightening to think that what befell the Sub Post Masters could happen to any of us and that there are people who just don't care.
There are wider issues. The PO scandal is one of many that show the British judicial system is broken and not fit for purpose; this applies to both criminal and civil procedures. Judges decisions are not independent but highly bias in favour of government bodies and corporates. Most judges are also barristers and they will judge in favour of their colleagues. Joe public has no chance.

Malicious prosecution of people known to be innocent MUST carry the same penalty as the miscreants attempted to impose on innocent people - the same penalty IN TOTAL - so 100 people liable to prison for a year makes the crime deserve a 100year punishment.
It would be nice to put Vennels in Holloway pending her giving evidence to the Inquiry. Won't happen, of course, but it would be a measure of justice for those wrongly imprisoned.
This is how these narcissists work!. She thinks she would never be questioned about any wrong doing once she was ordained!! Well she’s going to get her karma now..

The HUGE open question is, what was the motivation to change the numbers and what happened to all that money? Paula Venal's statament: "I fully support kicking this can down the road for at least a few more years". Her legal counsel should never practice again, and of course various figures at Fujitsu need to find their way into cold cells.
My understanding is that Horizon were accessing their systems overnight to cover up faults in their software. Unfortunately, to avoid criticism, the Sub Post Masters were not told. To avoid being automatically locked out of the system for the following days and lose income and have suspicions directed at them, the SPMs moved figures around, which many later admitted to, to try and balance the shortfalls. The shortfalls and discrepancies were the result of the faulty Horizon system and there was no actual disappearing monies. There were three scandals (at least). Firstly the faulty software that was covered up, the covert but known regular changing of Post Office takings, and the final cover up of what was taking place by senior management et al that led to miscarriages of justice and wrongful convictions.
give her a big fat pension, reward her that is what uk law wants to do that is why paula is above the law of this fine country we all know she should get 20years or should she let put it to a vote or how about a jury
Total discracefull behaviour this woman should be investigated by the 🚓🚨🚓🚨🚓🚨 police why is this not happening why are the police doing nothing about this she shouldn't be allowed to hide behind the post office enquiry she has lied and lied again. Come on police the ball is in your court
She deserves to lose every penny of her salary and bonuses she paid herself during this time, her home, her savings, her possessions...the lot. And go to prison.
What am I missing? If a forensic accountant says X pounds is missing from an account, where has the actual money disappeared to? Has it [falsely] gone into the organisation's accounts and bumped up their bottom line/profit?
“What should be the consequences for her here do you think?” Question asked. “Very very serious retribution” was the reply. In normal speak that means FCK ALL. NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO HER.
Don't worry, she will be arrested, charge, have her time in court and will serve a long sentence. Considering her age, it will probably be forever for her. Why do I say that? What she has done is so egregious that the public demand it, she has embarrassed senior politicians and she is expendable.
@@paulh3122 Thanks Paul, I hope so as well. Judging by her behaviour, I think that she is a nasty piece of work who has trampled over people to get to the top. I have the feeling that she is going to feign mental illness and try to get off that way. After watching quite a few videos of the inquiry, quite a few of the Post Office staff seem to have early signs of dementia because they cannot seem to remember anything about their part in the scandal.
It’s very obvious that amounts of money were changed and the PO told repeated lies saying you’re the only one whose figures are wrong. Many people paid to save themselves being imprisoned. But nothing has revealed where the money, wrongly extracted from the PO branch managers finished up. I cannot believe it remained in the main PO account. Normally when money is syphoned away like this, it goes into someone’s pocket for personal gain. It benefit’s a small group of robbers only. For me, most important question is who personally benefited from this? Where did the money extracted from the managers finish up. Surely it must be the small group of top executives who persecuted the local managers. No one would drive people to commit suicide unless they benefitted in some way. It’s a real swamp of deceit already, but many questions still need to be answered.
Those at the top were very, very determined, enthusiastic even, to punish those they had decided were wrong doers. Ok. Now let us see this approach applied in their case….
We need reflect very seriously on the state our society and who we elect as our Leaders, when MPs lie, behave appalingly, party away happily during Covid; when officials in Corporate Companies bloat out on fat bonuses, cover up mismanagament, create scandals as in the Post Office tragedy, then society is going wrong. If we elect low grade governance can we expect justice, right dealings, fair play? Perhaps we need to return to those values mocked as " old- fashioned" "out- dated" " religious guff" ? Values like truth, honesty, justice, righteousness, generosity, kindness are needed. The good old Bible has a lot of wisdom in it. A little glance at Proverbs or the Ten Commandments might be a useful starter, because the way we seem to be going is not the path of wisdom, but certainly the path of folly.
It is interesting that this flawed character could have been the Bishop of London if not for the timely intervention of the Post Office scandal exposure!

Apparently you can be totally incompetent,or worse, at your job,get very well remunerated through salary and bonuses with tax payer money, and yet an honour is automatically bestowed on an individual as a matter of course.Just about sums up public services in the UK at present.Failure is highly rewarded.
All the more shocking that she was considered for the position of Bishop of London yet had no problem breaking the 9th Commandment: thou shalt not bear false witness(lie)

Not only should she pay the post masters so should Fujistu they are both responsible for this travesty of justice, then Jail her and others.
And those responsible should be charged with the deaths of those who took their own lives because of the allegations.
Jail terms, across the board, including the lawyer firm, and anyone WHO knew that post masters were facing criminal prosecutions. They knew full well the system was flawed and did nothing. So in some cases it's corporate manslaughter but I would say its worst. THey knew and planned to do nothing, so its more closer to murder of those who lost their lives. This was not by accident
You are deluded. How can you be charged with the death of somebody committing suicide? What would the charge be exactly?
@@catabaticanabatic3800 Clearly you have never yet been accused of something that you are totally innocent of. It happened to me many years ago and believe me the stress level that you go through is off the scale even though you are totally innocent.
All of the Post Office senior managers should be in a jail cell. A complete disgrace that this scandal happened and ALL of them have escaped consequences of any kind. An example of how the rich and powerful operate above the law.
She's too well connected to be bothered and It'll just fade away with time.

We all know how things work in this country. If you are charged with breaking the law and end up in court, you have a much better chance of walking free if you are guilty and wealthy than you would if you were innocent and poor.
Vennels, Parker, Davey, Crozier and all the other senior Post Office managers who presided over this outrageous scandal are unlikely to receive any punishment. They will employ top lawyers who will do whatever it takes to keep them out of court. The people responsible for this cover up/fraud/scandal/ huge miscarriage of justice will simply lie low for a while and then, in a few years time, when the media interest has all died down, they will walk into very well paid jobs somewhere else. That is the way of things in Britain.

Look at the courts and how they can authorize euthanizing disabled babies against the parents' wishes because it will cost the government. Murderers stay in prison for life and it costs millions, but a disabled baby is executed because the courts and hospitals/government won't let the parents take their babies home.
Too many Paula Vennels types without conscience in the UK judicial system and government system.
Who has sat on these tapes for 20 years only to release them now??

There was no waiting for a full inquiry to report when the subpostmasters were being dragged through the courts. Two-tiered justice system.

This can’t get any worse can it. Not so what the point of the enquiry is now. Just get them to trial.

Rank hypocrisy, typical of the Church.
😅 4:54 After returning her award and not appointed as the Bishop of London, Revd Vennells was then appointed to another prestigious role by the Archbishop, as reported in the Church Times. I assume he will be giving a statement, at his convenience, as to why this was done ?
The damage done by Revd. Vennells and her cohorts is more than appalling and a stain on the CofE's reputation, diminishing the many good works it does, such as setting up Food Banks, opening centres for the homeless plus many other much needed community services addresssing ills in society, mostly carried out by the laity. Church Leadership requires of itself to demonstrate the highest moral and ethical values to all its followers at all times. Let us hope it will explain its stance in this matter.
If that's true then the Japanese should pay all compensation not the British tax payer...
haha lol
I seems to me everyone is saying UK gov should pay. It should be squarely on Fujitsu. They built a rubbish system witha backdoor. On whose orders did they do that?
Agreed but those in the PO's covered this up and became corporate serial killers. Every asset they own and their pension should be stripped from them to help pay compensation.
Nothing will happen to her. No executives will be held responsible. It will happen again.
ETA: Vennells and the executives responsible will lead lead long, happy and affluent lives.
they put Lord Archer away for much less and the expenses theives . they cant hide 780 cases of conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
It is up to US to ensure that she doesn't get away with it. Have you emailed you MP and the PM and the leader of the opposition to say you demand that she be charged, and the crime you think you can prove? If not, then go and do it.

Prison.
Surely this demonstrates that a conspiracy took place to persecute the postmasters.
But why - was it to steal money from them that they could then share between them since there was no theft by SPM's?
"If some bloody whistleblower...."
I assume this gentleman means if someone knows how wrong this is and tells the truth!.
These people need to have custodial sentences to make them realise their contempt for the truth does not outweigh the seriousness of their crimes!
He’s a good guy. He’s not part of it.

Funny how the feeling of great sympathy are only extended once the scandal is exposed. Where is the empathy and morality while it was happening in real time? Its almost like they don’t real feel it, they just say what they think they should. That is what psychopaths do too

Surely there must be custodial sentences handed out to those within Post Office people top down who knew things but did nothing to stop it. It's frightening to think that what befell the Sub Post Masters could happen to any of us and that there are people who just don't care.
There are wider issues. The PO scandal is one of many that show the British judicial system is broken and not fit for purpose; this applies to both criminal and civil procedures. Judges decisions are not independent but highly bias in favour of government bodies and corporates. Most judges are also barristers and they will judge in favour of their colleagues. Joe public has no chance.

@FreeToSurvive Go to prison for 10 years.
Malicious prosecution of people known to be innocent MUST carry the same penalty as the miscreants attempted to impose on innocent people - the same penalty IN TOTAL - so 100 people liable to prison for a year makes the crime deserve a 100year punishment.
Sounds like we’re going to need a ‘Mr. Bates and the Post Office’ part 5, 6, 7 & 8. 😡
It would be nice to put Vennels in Holloway pending her giving evidence to the Inquiry. Won't happen, of course, but it would be a measure of justice for those wrongly imprisoned.

The HUGE open question is, what was the motivation to change the numbers and what happened to all that money?
Paula Venal's statament: "I fully support kicking this can down the road for at least a few more years". Her legal counsel should never practice again, and of course various figures at Fujitsu need to find their way into cold cells.
My understanding is that Horizon were accessing their systems overnight to cover up faults in their software. Unfortunately, to avoid criticism, the Sub Post Masters were not told. To avoid being automatically locked out of the system for the following days and lose income and have suspicions directed at them, the SPMs moved figures around, which many later admitted to, to try and balance the shortfalls. The shortfalls and discrepancies were the result of the faulty Horizon system and there was no actual disappearing monies. There were three scandals (at least). Firstly the faulty software that was covered up, the covert but known regular changing of Post Office takings, and the final cover up of what was taking place by senior management et al that led to miscarriages of justice and wrongful convictions.
@@kevinthebespectacledpilgrim Thanks. I'm an Australian who has come a bit late to this story, it's utterly amazing.

She deserves to lose every penny of her salary and bonuses she paid herself during this time, her home, her savings, her possessions...the lot. And go to prison.
Fast track the judicial process regarding all these senior members of post service, esp Ms Venells.
What am I missing? If a forensic accountant says X pounds is missing from an account, where has the actual money disappeared to? Has it [falsely] gone into the organisation's accounts and bumped up their bottom line/profit?
Now they have proof let’s see some action to resolve all this cover up and give the people the money and justice they deserve
“What should be the consequences for her here do you think?” Question asked. “Very very serious retribution” was the reply. In normal speak that means FCK ALL. NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO HER.
Don't worry, she will be arrested, charge, have her time in court and will serve a long sentence. Considering her age, it will probably be forever for her.
Why do I say that? What she has done is so egregious that the public demand it, she has embarrassed senior politicians and she is expendable.

What a Deluded, horrible woman who damaged the Post Office, and she could have done something, but didn't.🤬🤬🤬
It’s very obvious that amounts of money were changed and the PO told repeated lies saying you’re the only one whose figures are wrong. Many people paid to save themselves being imprisoned. But nothing has revealed where the money, wrongly extracted from the PO branch managers finished up. I cannot believe it remained in the main PO account. Normally when money is syphoned away like this, it goes into someone’s pocket for personal gain. It benefit’s a small group of robbers only.
For me, most important question is who personally benefited from this? Where did the money extracted from the managers finish up. Surely it must be the small group of top executives who persecuted the local managers. No one would drive people to commit suicide unless they benefitted in some way. It’s a real swamp of deceit already, but many questions still need to be answered.
These people need to go to prison for the total amount of time, all the wrongly convicted did.
Why hasn’t the Lady been arrested. Totally wrong if she isn’t.
Those at the top were very, very determined, enthusiastic even, to punish those they had decided were wrong doers. Ok. Now let us see this approach applied in their case….
We need reflect very seriously on the state our society and who we elect as our Leaders, when MPs lie, behave appalingly, party away happily during Covid; when officials in Corporate Companies bloat out on fat bonuses, cover up mismanagament, create scandals as in the Post Office tragedy, then society is going wrong.
If we elect low grade governance can we expect justice, right dealings, fair play? Perhaps we need to return to those values mocked as " old- fashioned" "out- dated" " religious guff" ?
Values like truth, honesty, justice, righteousness, generosity, kindness are needed.
The good old Bible has a lot of wisdom in it. A little glance at Proverbs or the Ten Commandments might be a useful starter, because the way we seem to be going is not the path of wisdom, but certainly the path of folly.
Proof that monsters are among us, some even parade as ministers, priests and God knows what to blend into society where they can commit their deeds
So will all those involved be tried and sentenced? I bet this goes right to the top hence the cover up!
People died because of her. Peoples lives were ruined because of her...... 20 years in jail..... minimum
Just how much proof do they need before they do something? Lesser mortals would have been charged before now!
It is interesting that this flawed character could have been the Bishop of London if not for the timely intervention of the Post Office scandal exposure!
She should be jailed - it's an absolute travesty
Anyone else would already be in a cell for perverting the course of justice.
