Hugely enjoying watching a partner from Bond Pearce (as it then was - now Womble Bond Dickinson) tell the KC questioning him about different interpretations of the word “precedent”

Sad bint that I am

Day 69 today. Mandy Talbot initially comes across as a kindly old Welsh granny, when in actual fact she is a nasty, vindictive, horrid "human".

The amount of things she "can't recall" is frankly ridiculous 🙄

Listening to the PO brief at the inquiry, why is the only thing that comes to mind the old adage "Fine words butter no parsnips"?

going forward. But in order to do that you have to compare them on the same analysis as Apples and Apples, not Apples and Oranges.

Just over 530 final settlements have been processed in the last ten months.

At that rate it will take until 2029 to process the remaining claims - suggesting we're only about half way.

That can't be acceptable to the government.

On 24 May, it was confirmed that the #PostOffice had had to be cut out of the #RoyalMail in 2011 so that the Royal Mail could be privatised, because the City had known, even then, about #Horizon. #AlanBates #PostOfficeInquiry #PoliticsLive #wato #bbcwato davidaslindsay.blogspot.com/2024/12/econ...

Van der Bogerd is quite keen on putting blame on Fujitsu. And the staff working most closely with them.

Comms obviously more important than active management

My experience of corporate/commercial law teams in bigger firms is of a lot of willy waving, grandstanding & ambition. And gossip. Lawyers are worse than a nest of snakes.

Hah! Andy Parsons advised PO not to look at wider error logs (14,000 of them) because the subpostmasters lawyers hadn’t specifically asked for them

Oh dear

Anthony Robinson KC in an “informal briefing” : it was good Gareth Jenkins wasn’t not called to give evidence because he was an “unreliable god”. The other side say suppression. “And you know what? They might be right. They would have killed him at trial”

Paula Vennells is responding to a lot of questions at the #PostOfficeInquiry by staring vacantly into space

which rather conveniently backs up the impression of a Chief Executive who had absolutely no idea what was going on or how to do her job
