  • The politician, who campaigned for justice for wrongly convicted sub-postmasters, says the secret recording of a meeting in 2013 attended by Paula Vennells - exclusively revealed by ITV News last week - answers a question campaigners have been asking for years about what she knew and when.
    On July 2 2013, in a meeting with independent investigators Ian Henderson and Ron Warmington from Second Sight, Ms Vennells was made aware of allegations that Sub-postmaster branch accounts could be accessed remotely.
    This is something the Post Office had denied for years as hundreds of Sub-postmasters were convicted.

    30 years in prison and fully asset-stripped. Her liquid assets should be confiscated to pay towards court costs, the £100m court case that needn't have taken place due to her lies, subpostmaster recompense and us the tax-payer.
    She should have her post office pension confiscated too.
    What a disgraceful woman.

    Why was Paula Vennells ever nominated for an honour in the first place? Are gongs handed out for public service as a matter of routine or do you have to actually earn these honours? 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.

      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.

      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.

    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.
