And yet many of the top brass involved in this debacle still have their jobs. In the US you'd probably get a long prison sentence for such shennanigans, but over here you'll probably get a peerage instead.

Yes, the denials and doubling down in the face of incontrovertible evidence by the Post Office has been disgraceful. The senior executives involved really should be held properly accountable.
Private Eye has been all over this one for years, it's quite surprising how long it take to make the rest of the media. Glad it has now. |  |

Also, reading this article is painful - using colloquialisms like 'fiddling the books' was disturbing. Easy to see how quickly people can reach a dim view of someone before conviction when less than objective language is used.
What irritates me is the number of post masters who were backed into a corner to take a plea bargain as the cards were stacked against them. | |
