At the time this was going on only 2 groups of people knew what was really happening, FUJITSU and the Post Office, and both lied to hide the truth. Anybody else peripheral to the prosecutions at the time would have been basing their judgement on their trust of these 2 ( lying ) organisations to be providing honest accounts and evidence. The CPS would have been provided the evidence for the prosecutions they undertook by the PO, who swore that it was true and accurate. On what grounds would the CPS have felt the need to query to any greater extent what they were told ?

Relatively minor fraud cases, I doubt it.

Being accountable and being "'involved"' are not the same thing.

Do you think the DPP is personally involved in, or even aware of, every case his Department handles ?

How does Good King Wenceslas like his pizza ? Deep pan, crisp and even.

In the HoC this evening one MP raised the interesting conspiracy theory that the PO might have used the Horizon prosecutions to expedite a program of closing sub-postoffices as a cost cutting measure. ( Under Paula Vennels the PO went from being a loss making concern to profitability ).

Maybe restrict your wife's access to Social Media ?

FUJITSU will have issued a guarantee that there are no remote access routes. No sir. none whatsoever.

Absolutely this.

The. PO were told by FUJITSU there were no issues; FUJITSU lied, the PO were too lazy/incompetent to challenge this. In the case I experienced it was a major upgrade to a database system that exhibited problems immediately after implementation. ICL were trying to convince my boss that an expensive hardware upgrade was required to overcome the issue, I proved their database indexes were incorrectly defined.

Oh indeed, but getting to the point where acceptance was signed off could, in my experience, be tortuous. Trying to convince their software developers and support engineers of the faults in what had been delivered was often a struggle - in fact at one point I told my boss that he either trusted me in a dispute over a server system's configuration with ICL, or I would resign. ( He backed me, they ultimately admitted I was right ).

They also have a track record of releasing poorly designed and tested large IT software suites. ( From somebody who knows ).

ICL were the principal IT supplier to the Post Office, as with much of the Public Sector through the 70s, 80s, and 90s, so there was a long standing relationship which transferred to FUJITSU once ICL had been fully absorbed into it's parent company.

Size does not reflect competence, but it does allow you to offer larger inducements.

They don't count sheep, they count their money.

Probably a hangover from the Government's long association with ICL, much the same way CAPITA win government contracts - much too pally. ICL were absorbed into FUJITSU, but the relationships would have been retained.

Would Sunak be bothered if it wasn't an election year ? ( And yes some might say the same about opposition politicians, but they are not yet in a position to actually take action ).

So by your reckoning anybody protesting Israel's actions on Palestinian territory is anti-Semitic. That is playing straight from Netanyahu's playbook of feigned innocence. Meanwhile, there is a growing allegation that the IDF is deliberately targeting Arabic journalists covering the conflict; https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67905566

The strange thing is it is the second time has filmed a mouse doing this, he was the photographer called in to investigate this, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-bristol-47625284.
