Post Office scandal campaigner Alan Bates has said ex-boss Paula Vennells' evidence at the Horizon Inquiry was 'well rehearsed' and that she was employing 'selective amnesia' in her recollections. Speaking to Carol Vorderman on LBC, Mr Bates, the central figure in the dramatisation of the scandal Mr Bates vs The Post Office, took issue with former CEO Paula Vennells' evidence at the inquiry last week.
I can understand that, but I think there are an awful lot of questions yet to be answered around her appointment."Alan added: She ignored us. That's all the arrogance in there. She loved the Post Office, as I say. She loved the money."I mean, she loves the lifestyle. She loved being on holiday, being able to run her meetings from abroad and all the rest of it."And actually, you'd have heard throughout her evidence that it was never her. The Post Office did wrong.
