The executives should have been removed if not imprisoned for this whole thing.

That should apply to everyone at the Post Office and Fujitsu who knew what was happening and covered it up.

Compensation is not justice.

No one from the Post Office, Fujitsu or the CPS had been charged, as far as I’m aware.

Incredibly the Post Office is still using Horizon and Fujitsu. Accountability stops above the shop floor.

but . . but . . they've promised to behave in future, and we all know now that an apology and promise to be a good boy gets you a lesser sentence.

Thinking about current topics, they've actually escaped from jail without even being put in one.

Why has he been awarded "millions", seems rather excessive ?

Re: Sir Alan Bates awarded Millions
 

20 years in the making all the stress and ruined lives I am not so sure it was excessive personally/ The real shame is as said by others they got away with it


this of course no amount of payout to anyone will ever make up for
