Ive just finished the fourth episode of Mr Bates Vs the Post Office, and its a total scandal.

What I think really really winds me up, is how its a case of machines and computer systems being believed, against logic and people! Perhaps there area always going to be one or two bad apples, who try and steal or defraud their employers, but the majority of the sub-postmasters featured, were so obviously trusted pillars of their community. Why on earth didnt anyone in charge of the post office at the beginning, start a proper investigation?
This TV show is going to blow the whole story wide open. There is no way the sub postmasters, aren't going to be due the compensation they deserve- What a pity the compensation cant be paid by the post office officials or Fujitsu, that caused the problems in the first place. Lets see Adam Crozier, Paula Vennels and Angela van Den Bogerd , prosecuted and taken to court as the sub-postmasters were!

Trouble is I've seen this behaviour throughout my life. From being a child - the church, being in a court room - social services, etc etc.
So when I'm being advised to listen to someone (financial consultant) whose warning about digital currency and debanking, e.g. could you prove that you had this money in the bank if the computer says no? and the difficulty in accessing a closed account where they haven't returned your money and seem keen to take the paperwork proof off you (keep copies).
It all leaves you with a bad taste in your mouth about how people use power and ruin people's lives.

Re Mr Bates and the Post Office. Really glad to see BBC bfast have picked up the story again . Staggering to learn that the Post Office were still trying to prosecute in 2014 despite knowing that the system was flawed. You’d have thought given what was known the PO would be holding off prosecutions until the enquiry had finished .

utterly shameful behaviour from the PO . I hope they are rinsed off the back of the show and once the enquiry finishes.

Just finished watching Dream Horse which I'd forgotten was the only thing I had planned to watch this Christmas, but must have missed it
Yet another night I end up bawling after watching the TV 😁🙄

I’m about to start watching the first series of The Tourist. I’ve never seen it before, but I’ve noticed all the hype surrounding the second series coming out, so thought it might be worth a watch.
