People are quick to blame the computer system, but it's a manifestation of the problem. The responsibility lies with people. The people who didn't audit that the software was doing it's job properly and the people that didn't question the integrity of the system when it flagged so many cases

Absolutely delighted that the victims of this horrific cover up are beginning to recieve attention and justice thanks to the drama. Slating it and wishing for a documentary instead is redundant when the drama has clearly done so much good for the real life victims.

Default Post Office Horizon victims offered £600,000 of compensation
Serves Fujitsu right


They lost a fortune days ago .. Fujitsu valuation drops by $1bn amid Post Office scandal scrutiny but this morning it looks to have collapsed- looks like they in a very bad way on the stock exchange !

Fujitsu have this morning offered to contribute to the compensation pot ..

Sounds like an admission of guilt ?

Apparently their stocks have collapsed on hearing the news

Alongside the compensation I'd like to see some jail sentences handed out.

BBC News Text:
[The i's main story is about the Post Office scandal.
In what it says is an exclusive report,
the paper claims the Post Office was behind
the design of another "faulty IT system" that
may have led to sub-postmasters being
unfairly prosecuted and convicted before
the Horizon scandal.
It also says the government is in talks
about alleged errors in the
Capture accounting software.]
