Post Office Inquiry Reveals Systematic Cover-Up of Horizon IT Failures

Former MP Lord Arbuthnot testifies about the Post Office's defensive tactics and misleading information regarding the Horizon system.

Lord Arbuthnot accuses Post Office executives of misleading Parliament and covering up faults in the Horizon system to protect the organization.
Emails and witness statements reveal Post Office staff feared career repercussions for admitting system errors.
Over 700 subpostmasters were wrongly prosecuted due to faults in the Horizon system, leading to significant personal and financial hardships.
Government and Post Office executives blamed subpostmasters, suggesting theft due to 'temptation' rather than acknowledging IT failures.
Hundreds of affected subpostmasters are still awaiting compensation despite government promises of redress.
