Terence Austin' s second witness statement was released on 30 July. His first appearance back in Oct 2022 was not impressive but credit should be given when it is due. His second statement give a clear overview of the Horizon IT PFI clusterfuck. postofficehorizoninquiry.org…

@james_christie It was a bit of a surprise to see that Austin produced a reasonably cogent summary of all the factors that contributed to the mess on the development side.

News reports are full of comments stating that Ex PO chair Alice Perkins is in line for being prosecuted in connection with the PO Horizon cover up. Does anyone think she has already been punished - 25 years of marriage to ex Labour bigwig Jack Straw. What could be worse?
0% Yes, clemency for Perkins
100% No, Perkins for jail

The comeuppance table for the current witnesses at the Horizon Inquiry is overflowing with deserving candidates. One of my favourites for coming top of the table is ex-NFSP chief George Thomson - kumu.io/warrensimmons/horizo… @stugoo17 @BrianARogers62 @GouldsBlog

1/n Some people say the OBE award stands for Other Buggers' Efforts - ex Post Office secretary Alwen Lyons is a good example. Until July 2023 at least you could read all about her on the PO website. But someone has done some spring cleaning - all stories have gone. @stugoo17

2/n if you click on the google search result for that story, all you get is an error message (same with all the other stories for Alwen that used to be there). I wonder why? @stugoo17 @gouldsblog @brianwhelton

3/n But here you are....the old story page for Alwen still survives. We will have to make sure she is reminded. Committed christian 🙈 Daddy was the General Secretary of the useless NFSP 🙈. What state of denial is Alwen in right now? We can only wonder. @stugoo17 @GouldsBlog

Aujard's successor still has her profile up - interestingly, on leaving the Post Office, Jane Macleod ended up in the same FNZ group as Aujard, Still no mugshot for Macleod - maybe she is walking around with a paper bag on her head/ linkedin.com/in/jane-macleod…

big ? : who were the uni experts who were interviewed by Cartwright King and rejected as being "not good enough" according to Singh. I bet they were rejected because they highlighted the basic problems with delivering the required message @stugoo17 @brianwhelton @GouldsBlog

The face of Diane Matthews towards the end of her morning session at the Horizon Inquiry when she is at the receiving end of a series of masterful pauses by Beer KC which allow her to reflect quietly on taking part in watering down witness statements by Gareth Jenkins. Beautiful.

Can't wait to read the written decision of the Supreme Court in the Rwanda case. The oral summary that I just listened to was a damning take-down of the Rwanda policy as implemented by Braverman. @ColinYeo1 @SoniaL77

National Audit Office published a report on 17 October which highlights various issues with Ukraine Scheme. The NAO identifies data company Palantir as having provided crap data. nao.org.uk/wp-content/upload…

and Palantir is the data company working with NHS on all of our health data. What could possibly go wrong? @brianwhelton @ColinYeo1

Wombles partner Stephen Dilley is getting the kind of press coverage that he doesn't want to get - serves him right for being a cocksure twerp in his original posts on LinkedIn and his firm's website. @GouldsBlog rollonfriday.com/news-conten…

[1] The third witness statement by Ben Foat that was released on 5 September is a shocker. Foat has clearly established that he is the leading contender for being captain of the UK's under-the-bus pushing team in the next Olympics. postofficehorizoninquiry.org… @GouldsBlog @stugoo17

[2] Foat flags up front the important point about legal privilege and how POL's waiver only goes up to February 2020. In relation to the specific advice, that just begs the question - what is he being so sensitive about? Cue another round of pummelling for Foat 🙈🙈🙈🙈

[3] I think it is a matter of concern that Foat is exposing himself to an increasing risk of injury through his energetic under-the-bus pushing activities in recent months. When will Foat launch a Gofundme request to finance this? @GouldsBlog @stugoo17
