In this inquiry it was stated by Post office heirachy that the Sub Postmasters should have their pensions taken to pay their shortfalls, may I suggest that these post office people on huge salaries should have their pensions taken to pay towards the compensations.
Waste of taxpayers money as usual ! No one will be prosecuted. The rotters will get a knuckle rap and they will say" we've made mistakes and could have been more diligent Moving on we shall take more care " Always the same an a poor apology until the next debacle ! Disgraceful .
I've noticed that a load of these who are at the top have a selective amnesia and lack of accountability. They knew what was happening and did nothing but persecute the people. But now they are making out as if they did nothing wrong . They all need to get charged for what they did to the people. Some killed themselves some passed away with the knowledge that they were treated as thieves. This is all shocking.
If a person "refuses" to remember, that is to say, " admit" something, then they must accept that any reasonable interpretation based on documentation is likely to be the truth.
Don't know why he had to have paper copies rather than read the screen. Frequently had to be told the ref. number 2 or 3 times. Seems to have problems understanding what words mean - he has his own definition at odds with a standard dictionary. Very unconvincing witness. I'm sure he want to keep his job at the PO because based on his answers here it is doubtful any one else will employ him.
It was just a delaying tactic, to give him time to try and formulate a response and when he couldn’t think of a plausible one he just said “I don’t recall”.
I thought lawyers had an overriding obligation to the bar and the courts to see that justice is done, not that their clients win a case which is dubious. I can only presume that Rodric Williams is not a lawyer if he's not aware of that. A lawyer who actively seeks to prevent the CCRC reviewing a potential miscarriage of justice should be expelled from the bar.
On the contrary, it's my understanding that their aim is always to twist the law in favour of whoever is paying them. Even if they were employed by the worst murderer or sex offender, they'd pull every trick in the book to get them acquitted on a technicality, provided they're rich enough to pay the bill.

The greatest lesson that takes some of us many years to learn, is that not everyone sees the world in the same way and there are some genuinely horrendous people out there....

😂 “Sorry I’m not sure what you mean by ‘name’. Could you break that down a bit further? I wasn’t involved in providing names. That was the criminal law team”.
This is a view of the inner workings of much of the corporate world. Many of these executives lost their moral compass in the mire of tribal group think. Senior people unfit for purpose.
If you did not see the end of this. Rodric Williams states he regrets being "associated" with this. Mr Stein then delivers one of his best lines of the whole inquiry. "You were not associated with it Mr Williams, you were right in the centre of the web and you were part of it."
They really are vile they lie they see honest hard working people falsley accused even put in prison where in fact its them that should be in prison the government should be doing more to support these poor innocent post office workers but were talking about the tories nothing gets done absolutely despicable.
right down the end of this long tunnel is the govt they were going to make fortunes on the PO being privatised ..ie vince cable and the shares...and that is why all these people were told to cover it all up
It’s not enough to point to individuals like this CEO. Any bonuses during the period in question should be clawed back “automatically.” Also, how did they get their position? Who pulled strings? Who provided the glowing references? Claw them back into the public eye by adding them to hearings. Also, who did the CEO personally hire or push to hire? Were they actually the best qualified or just hacks and no shows. Sweep away this man’s professional gene pool.
There seems to be a sickness in corporate culture. Evident here and and MPs recent questioning of Thames Water bosses. People seemingly without a moral compass
Hi Guys All your comments are 100 percent how we feel. How can this guy go home to his family and look at them in the eyes. How does his wife or partner feel.. Ashamed will be the word. This guy Should not be able to practice any law again in the UK. Simply because he should be barred or lose his license. Hopefully, members of the law society are looking at these cases and BAR all legal members of the POL, also these so-called directors should not be allowed to hold any directorships with any company. Or have a job how can any company trust them. Finally, do the POL legal companies get questioned. That will be another farce of lies and blame POL . Thanks John
His performance is so abject & contrived that I can almost respect other witnesses who have replied that they were wrong , that it should never have happened and that they apologise. His pathetic performance with the hard copy folder, which no other witness has demanded, is obviously intended to use up the time. What a ghastly charlatan & to think the POL has him nay role near compensation. The PO is still "at it!"
Unless members of the Post Office management go to prison , there is no justice .
What slightly bothers me about all this is that Blair and Mandy will never be questioned in the same way - or questioned at all

😂 “Sorry I’m not sure what you mean by ‘name’. Could you break that down a bit further? I wasn’t involved in providing names. That was the criminal law team”.
This guy brings incompetence to whole new level
The advertisement for this persons job probably said integrity and honesty is not a requirement.
Caught in the headlights seems to be a good analogy!
This is a view of the inner workings of much of the corporate world. Many of these executives lost their moral compass in the mire of tribal group think. Senior people unfit for purpose.
If they owned up I'd still have no sympathy but the fact they're still lying under oath they should have any sentence doubled
This body language speaks volumes of guilt. Speed it he video to double speed and watch again.
He's trying to perfect his "baffled decent bloke" face
His whole family evidence was painful to watch. Mr beers was very patient and kept is facial expressions to a minimum.x
Beer; there's just one of him. It's not difficult to read from the screen.
I Can't believe that this bloke is Head of Legal at the PO.
A worm squirming on a hook
This man played a major part in having an innocent pregnant woman jailed. Why is he not in jail?
1 horrible human being
They get away with it even the bar judges are in the top ruling crust and they could even get a bonus for 25 years of delay.
They're happy to trash peoples lives whilst no one is looking. 😡
Just lying and look at the body language involved in lying !!!
In what reality is that a 'heated exchange'?
His odd response doesnt help him. Great suffering has been caused. Awful.
I Don’t Recall!
They all should go to jail so far 😂
Blinking like a strobe! What a Pants On Fire 🤣🤣🤣
If you did not see the end of this. Rodric Williams states he regrets being "associated" with this. Mr Stein then delivers one of his best lines of the whole inquiry. "You were not associated with it Mr Williams, you were right in the centre of the web and you were part of it."
They really are vile they lie they see honest hard working people falsley accused even put in prison where in fact its them that should be in prison the government should be doing more to support these poor innocent post office workers but were talking about the tories nothing gets done absolutely despicable.
right down the end of this long tunnel is the govt they were going to make fortunes on the PO being privatised ..ie vince cable and the shares...and that is why all these people were told to cover it all up
It’s not enough to point to individuals like this CEO. Any bonuses during the period in question should be clawed back “automatically.” Also, how did they get their position? Who pulled strings? Who provided the glowing references? Claw them back into the public eye by adding them to hearings. Also, who did the CEO personally hire or push to hire? Were they actually the best qualified or just hacks and no shows. Sweep away this man’s professional gene pool.
Squirming a bit . He’s feeling the noose tightening around his neck I think
How can he be the CURRENT head of the resolution team? Nuts.
He should be fired from his current job, if his memory is so bad.
Wow what a squirmer, never seen a more uncomfortable witness, and a legal type to boot...
NEWSFLASH - Lawyer Lies On Behalf Of Disreputable Client. Public Outraged.
There seems to be a sickness in corporate culture. Evident here and and MPs recent questioning of Thames Water bosses. People seemingly without a moral compass
Unbelievable he was like a crack addict going through cold Turkey all because of a few simple questions
what a weasle, he's getting caught out, bet his backside is nipping up somewhat.
You've been caught just say ok yes we did it and do the right think
He s constantly wriggling ….hes so uncomfortable, he ll need a toilet break soon
What’s happens when the criminal fraternity end up in high places . High flyers low lighters
Superb questioning......
the lying is getting worse by the day , why is the post office not closed down and these people brought to justice
Hi Guys All your comments are 100 percent how we feel. How can this guy go home to his family and look at them in the eyes. How does his wife or partner feel.. Ashamed will be the word. This guy Should not be able to practice any law again in the UK. Simply because he should be barred or lose his license. Hopefully, members of the law society are looking at these cases and BAR all legal members of the POL, also these so-called directors should not be allowed to hold any directorships with any company. Or have a job how can any company trust them. Finally, do the POL legal companies get questioned. That will be another farce of lies and blame POL . Thanks John
His performance is so abject & contrived that I can almost respect other witnesses who have replied that they were wrong , that it should never have happened and that they apologise. His pathetic performance with the hard copy folder, which no other witness has demanded, is obviously intended to use up the time. What a ghastly charlatan & to think the POL has him nay role near compensation. The PO is still "at it!"
He should be removed from his "proffesion"
When you fail to punish the guilty you punnish the inocent.
Jason Beer for Knighthood he is a star.
