(The petition to strip Paula Vennells of her CBE is almost at 400,000 signatures now.)
My missus works for Royal Mail and always stresses the separation between them and Post Office Counters, I didn't realise they were overlapping at the time.
Over 20 years ago now so not totally accurate. At best.
more people coming forward

Lowering my expectations has succeeded beyond my wildest dreams.
Should be an appeal against that.
Obstructive, malicious, corrupt, dishonest and cynical are words I would choose before obstinate.
I would say there has been a deliberate attempt to pervert the course of justice, probably perjury committed, and prosecutions need to take place.

It sounds like good news, but given their history it's a bit like getting Harold Shipman to investigate Peter Sutcliffe...
Until our species can raise its collective level of intelligence to the point at which we can move past war, money, politics and religion we're stuck with what we've got.
One of our other more self-defeating traits is an insistence on putting idiots in charge. Half the world's "leadership" is a mixture of narcissists, psychopaths and charismatic but fundamentally stupid individuals. A few more genuinely intelligent people in charge and the planet could have a much more optimistic future.
As humans the majority will pick a side and back it whether it’s right or wrong and this is always the cause of our downfall.
Tory or labour, Ukraine or Russia etc etc.
In this case they hit a point where they knew they could be wrong, but rather than admit it, they fought as one. People will have joined the ranks knowing they are causing hurt to others, but the gang mentality took over.
I recall working for a company and I raised a point that I thought should be aired. It was controversial, but it was like a pack of animals after you after that as people sided with the boss and it was about positioning yourself and self preservation rather than the issue I raised. I didn’t last in that business much longer.
When they say investigating they mean they're going to watch the show and then say "yeah it's bad that. Nothing we can do though".
From the BBC article-
My guess is there won't be any publicly apparent progress until after the public enquiry concludes, which is probably why some witnesses are being rather forgetful.
