Wonderful evening on stage with @tonydowney67 and @katieddowney talking about the post office scandal at the @South_Mill_Arts Centre in Bishop Stortford. Southend tonight!

@JoePajak @katieddowney @PostOffice @RosieBrock71780 @Karlfl @tonydowney67 @BBCBreakfast @nickwallis @RichardMoorhead @biztradegovuk @MichaelLCrick @BBCEmmaSimpson @RishiSunak @UKHouseofLords Glad Alan Bates knew so much about computer systems. The terrible thought that if Alan hadn’t been a SPM would the PO and Fujitsu got away with this horrendous scandal and all the SPM and their families whose lives have been ruined. This is just heartbreaking for all the families


@nickwallis Thanks for the running commentary, Nick… Appreciated & valued🙌 We’re driving down tomorrow morning~ So, we’re looking forward to your presentation @South_Mill_Arts Every best wish to all those taking part, especially @katieddowney & @tonydowney67 It’s going to be emotional

A pleasure to meet @katieddowney and Rebekah Foot #LostChancesForSubpostmasterChildren today to discuss how I can help their campaign to ensure Fujitsu does the right thing. Adult children of subpostmasters #HorizonScandal are victims too. Opportunities stolen; relationships damaged; mental health harmed. lostchances.co.uk

In early 2000, those at the top of the @PostOffice knew exactly what was going on and chose to ignore. @PostOffInquiry My life along with hundreds of others in the early 2000s was being thrown against the wall, businesses ruined, families torn apart, bankruptcies, ruined health ….. and they chose to take their big salaries and ignore . 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗿 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 is not an excuse, apologies will not be accepted. You failed and torn so many lives apart. Those lives are still ruined and too many are still fighting to get back what was taken from us . @GouldsBlog @stugoo17 @nickwallis @CastletonLee @JoHamil73963257 @nattyplums @hudgellsol @katieddowney
