system was to blame. i'm the sub—postmaster, so i'm locked in and everyone else is locked out. so if you want to see my account... this is a scandal going back decades, and now a tv drama watched by millions has pushed it to the top of the political agenda. i know it's probably me because i'm really rubbish with technology, but...|'ve declared my cash, i've declared my stock, i've done it all three times and i still can't get it to balance. mr bates vs the post office tells the real—life story of sub—postmasters and mistresses wrongly accused of stealing because of a dodgy computer programme. so on one hand, you had the post office saying that you're the only one, it must be you. and, obviously, people in the community then start to believe what they're being told by the post office. and that's really difficult, actually — is people... they was a trusted brand — the most trusted brand — now, obviously, that brand, i think�*s destroyed. the huge miscarriage ofjustice has been discussed many times before in parliament — but on the first evening sitting of 2024, a minister under renewed pressure to speed up justice for the victims.
