THE LAWYERS WHO HELPED JAIL INNOCENT POSTMASTERS ARE NOW UNDER INVESTIGATION 10 barristers under investigation by the Bar Standards Board @barstandards. 20 solicitors probed by the SRA. For their role in the Post Office Horizon scandal that destroyed nearly 1,000 lives and killed at least 13 people. They weren't just defence lawyers doing their job. They were strategy advisers. They argued a broken IT system was fine. Some tried to remove the judge. Hearings expected this summer. Nobody jailed yet. Nobody compensated properly yet. The legal profession is now asking why so many lawyers "crossed lines." Bit late but sure, crack on. Source: @LawGazette |

Here is the reality: - UK regains position of 5th largest economy in the world - Govt borrowing lowest since 2019 - Growth higher than expected - Finance sector fastest turnaround since 1996 - NHS waiting lists down nearly half a mil. - Min Wage now £26k Labour are a good govt.

Warning of additional hazards encountered by friends on a 194 last night. It's amazing what London Transport can detect on buses nowadays.

I want to know what vetting Charlotte Owen had when we dont even know who she is !!!!

Side by side comparison of Jimmy Carter's Operation Eagle Claw (left hand pane) and Donnie Trump's failed excursion [sic] over the weekend. Which is the greater failure - I think we should be told some accurate facts re purpose and what the outcomes were:

@bbclaurak LK - do you have an articulable reason why UK people should not keep calm and carry on? Or is it another glib question you raise without foundation?

Keep calm and carry on?

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

PARA HANDY SPECIAL OPS: A nautical acquaintance from The Broch sent me a message. 'Spotted leaving Inveraray bound for the Strait of Hormuz, to commence mine sweeping duties for the Royal Navy 🇬🇧! 😂'

#PostOfficeScandal #ParmodKalia #StateSponsoredCrime The Quiet Dignity of Parmod Kalia (6th December 1958 –13th March, 2026) Parmod Kalia was a trained Banker. An Associate of the Institute of Bankers. Assistant Bank Manager. Treasurer of an International Charity. A man for whom every penny had to be accounted for. He chose the Orpington Post Office for the quiet life. Stable hours. Time with his wife and four children. The Horizon system repaid that modest ambition with a phantom shortfall of £22,202.01. Post Office Ltd told him he was "the only one." The National Federation of SubPostmasters — his supposed protector — told him to repay the money and fabricate a story. He borrowed £22,000 from his Mother's life savings. Post Office pocketed every penny. Then they prosecuted him anyway. 6 months in Prison. 14 years in hiding. 3 occasions where he nearly took his own life. A 17 year estrangement from his son Mahesh, who was just 17 when they took his father away. Children who grew up asking: "Dad, have you taken the money?" His own children. Asking if their father was a thief. Because the State told them he was. His conviction was finally quashed in May 2021. He should have spent his remaining years in peace, rebuilding what was stolen. Instead, the Post Office unleashed elite City law firms to fight tooth and claw over every penny piece of his Redress. They challenged causation. They delayed. They low-balled. They rejected his interim claim of £100,000 on "public interest grounds." Highly paid lawyers — billing more per hour than Parmod earned in a week — deployed forensic cruelty against a traumatised, terminally declining man whose only demand was that someone look him in the eye and say: 'we did this to you, and we are sorry'. He tragically died on March 13, 2026. Still fighting. Still waiting. Still uncompensated. Still dignified. The inhumane savages masquerading as lawyers who wage this war of attrition against Parmod, his family and hundreds like him will simply move on, adjust their cufflinks, sip their flat whites, and open the next file. Another victim. Another billable hour. This obscene tragedy simply cannot continue. The time is long overdue for the Prime Minister to intervene — to show some leadership, some backbone, and some basic human decency. These are not commercial disputes. These are traumatised victims of a State-sponsored crime. The lawyers instructed to handle their redress must be ordered — ordered — to show compassion, humanity, and urgency. Every day of delay is another day stolen. And as Parmod Kalia's demise has proved, the days run out. Rest now, Parmod. The truth outlived them all. The shame belongs to those who made you wait. @Keir_Starmer @darrenpjones @biztradegovuk @AGinsight @liambyrnemp @commonsBTC @RachelReevesMP @DavidDavisMP @kevinhollinrake @CastletonLee @Janetsk20073533 @SeemaMisra_OBE @edwardhenry1 @BBCEmmaSimpson @nickwallis @Karlfl @marksweney @hrw @Cyclefree2 @DanNeidle @SkyNewsAdele @BBCBreakfast @ElCShaikh @VarchasPatel @Pinsent_Masons @hmtreasury @HouseofCommons @premnsikka @TimBushLondon @UKHouseofLords @TjX50 @Malcolm22206844 @NFSP @postoffice @PostOfficeNews @NFSP_UK @voiceofthepm @NigelRailton

@SpiesVespers Has Trump died suddenly then?

🤣

A very happy 15th of March to one and all.

Just in case you've decided to go soft on them in their time of grief, let me remind you of England before the wheels came off:

Can we get this shared 10,000 times? "War crimes don't hide sex crimes!"

This gets funnier every singe week
