“This Should End In Prison Sentences!” Jeremy Kyle Blasts Bosses Involved In Post Office Scandal

Hundreds of Post Office branch managers who were wrongly convicted in the Horizon IT scandal could have their names cleared by the end of the year. Blanket legislation to exonerate subpostmasters convicted in England and Wales will be introduced within weeks. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said they were victims of “one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in our nation’s history”. Hundreds of subpostmasters were convicted of swindling money on the basis of evidence from the flawed Horizon accounting system, with MPs told the Post Office showed “not only incompetence but malevolence” in the way it acted against them. The scale of the scandal has prompted the Government to adopt the unconventional approach of new legislation, rather than requiring individuals to challenge their convictions. TalkTV’s Jeremy Kyle and Rosie Wright discuss the story with broadcaster Emma Woolf and journalist James Bloodworth.
