Victims of British Post Office IT Scandal Demand Justice, Fair Compensation Amid ITV Drama and Calls to PM Starmer

The British Post Office IT scandal continues to draw public and legal scrutiny as victims seek justice and fair compensation. A recent ITV drama, Mr Bates vs the Post Office, has brought widespread attention to the Horizon scandal, highlighting the plight of wrongly prosecuted sub-postmasters. Ten former sub-postmasters appeared on BBC Breakfast to call on Prime Minister Keir Starmer to address the ongoing injustice and criticized the compensation schemes as 'cruel and never-ending.' Senior legal voices have emphasized the need for a determination on whether the compensation offered is full and fair. Additionally, an official inquiry into the scandal has recommended the implementation of a 'restorative justice' program to address the harm caused to those affected.
