Post Office 'strung MPs along over bugs in Horizon'
Daily Express
|April 11, 2024
A TORY peer yesterday accused Post Office bosses of "stringing along" MPs in a "behind-the-scenes deception" to cover up the Horizon IT scandal.
Lord Arbuthnot told the public inquiry into Britain's most widespread miscarriage of justice that Post Office chiefs knew there were bugs in the computer system that made it seem money was missing at branches.
He said he told then-Post Office boss Paula Vennells to halt prosecutions of subpostmasters while independent firm Second Sight investigated Fujitsu's Horizon system.
