Watching the BBC programme “Surviving the Post office” was truly emotional and once again shows the dreadful culture that pervades Post Office Ltd.

Unfortunately, and unbelievably except to Postmasters, that same culture persists to this day. Once again, we learnt what our fellow postmasters endured and the isolation that came with it. VOTP vigorously challenges Post Office Ltd on their comment made:

Horizon is obviously not “Robust” as has been demonstrated by the evidence presented to the Horizon Inquiry and the continuing experience of serving Postmasters.

Whoever in Post Office Ltd wrote and approved this statement should apologise publicly and unreservedly for the distress that this misleading statement has caused.

Compensation needs to be paid, before money is spent on a new computer system. We call on the Government to take control of the compensation schemes to ensure that full redress is paid without any further delay. This money should first go toward the redress for the victims, how can we move forwards and make a better future when the Government and Post Office Ltd will not properly address the failings of the past?

Post office Ltd should have no further involvement in the payment of redress except for providing information and we again ask the government for an independent panel to be bought in to fast track payments and redress, so we can rebuild the future network and safeguarding current postmasters’ investment in the business.

“I have found great value in being part of VOTP. The community is supportive, and the resources provided have helped me improve my post office operations significantly. Highly recommend it!”
