    We need to stop waiting for the enquiry. The police should investigate now. Theres simply too much evidence of wrong doing to wait another few years for a report.
    We have a police force and courts for these situations.

      Yes but the police are more concerned with arresting peaceful protestors. Doing a proper investigation require somebody in the police force to get off their arses and do some work. The senior officers are more concerned with budgets and paper shuffling.

    These top executives of the Post Office continually express sorrow for what has happened. Folks, you've all got it wrong. They're expressing sorrow for being caught, for their plans being undone, and for having to be dragged into a public enquiry. For ten years or more, they expressed no remorse or regret for the hundreds of innocent people having their lives trashed. After all, these poor people having their lives trashed were little people, who were potentially in the way of the Post Office's grand plans.

      Here's one: Definitive Map Review of public rights of way; when the 20yr landowner dedication rule was clarified by Highways Act 1980 & written into W & C Act 1981; twenty years later (2001) DEFRA was created as a political mechanism to process many thousands of artificial/fabricated discoveries of dedication. Systemic sham public inquiries took/take place where the only place victims can challenge the public fraud was/is in the High Court.
      Was the Foot & Mouth pandemic of 2001 a deliberate act to facilitate the complex mechanism to facilitate the administrative frauds: PROW's should be protected and improved, but not forged by events similar to the Post Office scandal. Corruption in public office is cancerous to good honest society. The primary difficulty re PROW is whether Parliament is in on the scandal. House of Lords Alconbury Finding 2001 enabled a gateway to avoid the principles of natural justice: adjusting the event of a public inquiry/hearing to an administrative act unbalancing the scales of justice to favour political criminals.

    I am watching all of this from New Zealand and even from this distance I cannot understand why, when it is so bleedingly obvious that your Post Office knew that they were persecuting innocent people over many years and having become aware of that, continued to do so, the Police are not all over this and seem reluctant to be there.
    Another thing that needs answering is why, after Horizon was installed and suddenly it seemed that the Sub- Post Offices were seeming staffed by a variety of larcenous crooks, nobody in a senior position actually thought. ''Hey, wait a minute, why have we not seen these losses and criminal behaviour before, what has changed, surely we have not suddenly got all these people stealing from us"" ! Was the Post Office protecting Fujitsu, or what was their motive in so blindly defending Horizon?

    Many of the police who're involved; many of the higher-ups at the PO, and many politicians, are members of an organisation that swears an oath to protect its members above all else. That's why nothing is happening - and probably won't happen - to the perpetrators of this heinous crime. The rich and powerful have connections that protect them, at the expense of everybody else. A lot of people involved in this conspiracy need to be charged, and convicted, if guilty. But even many of the judiciary are members of the same organisation that is protecting these people. Getting justice is going to be more than just an uphill battle - it needs the British people to wake the f**k up and finally realise who is running the show here.
