Astonishing that it's taken a TV programme to get the truth about #PostOfficeScandal out to most people. I heard more than 3 years ago when it had already been going on for 20 years. I hope we never see such a blatant miscarriage of justice again. Maybe social media will stop it?

I get so annoyed by the NHS mantra “there is no money”.

There’s a lot of money in the NHS. We are a rich nation with high taxes! The NHS mantra shouldn’t stop us doing essential things to improve patient safety and make our staff feel valued. #hsjpatientsafety
