Post Office “held gun to my head to agree deal after husband’s suicide”.

Gina Griffiths, whose husband Martin killed himself after Post Office falsely accused him of theft, said it had been “awful” listening to evidence about his death #PostOfficeInquiry thetimes.co.uk/article/post-o…

Post Office Angela van den Bogerd. As the redoubtable Beer makes pellucidly clear, that the Post Office’s hounding of drove poor Martin Griffiths to suicide was treated by senior management as primarily a PR management issue. Not a shred of pity and wholly unrepentant. Nauseating

I haven’t previously had time or opportunity to watch this evidence. I thought I knew most of why there was to know, but this leaves me simply lost for words. There are none. I first wrote about Martin Griffiths in February 2019. I hope that ultimately some good will come of it.

Sending love and support to you and the family Jayne Caveen listening today was so very difficult for so many, I have no idea of what you & your family R feeling at this time.
Just know you have support around the world now. Everyone saw AVDB 2day 🤬🤬🤬🤬

The thunderous disdain displayed by Edward Henry KC to PO management is quite something to behold.

He also never fails to set out the profound human impact of the actions taken by Post Office executives who are utterly devoid of empathy or compassion.

POST OFFICE DENIAL THAT IT WAS ABLE ‘REMOTELY’ TO ACCESS BRANCH POSTMASTER ACCOUNTS
For anyone who wants to know the truth about “remote access” (data was held on Fujitsu servers), the reality: bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/… at paras 522-555.

It may be weeks before we see significant battlefield effects of this decision but the strategic effect will be felt immediately…in the Kremlin where they now realize their plan to wait for us to quit has failed…and across Ukraine 🇺🇦!

One of the biggest lifers from the Post Office. In a great deal of difficulty. Admonished for misleading the court and then for inaccurate evidence in the Bates case. Can she finally tell the full story?

New from me: Paula Vennells schmoozed MPs as prosecutions continued.

CEO's report from January 2013 recorded plans for three 'private dinners' with 'smaller groups' of MPs as part of 'increasing engagement' in Westminster. 👇

Chris Aujard was Post Office’s top in-house lawyer between 2013 & 2015. ITV News has revealed in secret recordings he was told about the likelihood of wrongful prosecutions in 2013, but nothing changed.

He’s never spoken before. I caught up with him today. He asked for privacy.

Having the support of great journalists like yourself has help push this fight to the highest levels.
Thank you caroline bilton

Oh what a day! One I will never forget. I was so proud to be able to tell your story, to share your special moment. Your shoulders lifted that day, you were able to hold your head high. I have no idea where you get your strength from to keep fighting. You are an inspiration. X
