As if wrongly prosecuting hundreds of people wasn’t enough – now the Post Office has been forced to apologise for using racist terms to describe postmasters caught up in the Horizon computer scandal.

A newly revealed internal document shows fraud investigators were asked to group people based on their racial features – using language the Post Office has now admitted was “unacceptable”.

This is kind of small fry for the managerial class, considering what they did during the pandemic. The managerial overlords blood lust is at plus 2000 a week now, and it hasn't yet peaked.
This story is WILD😮
That's the UK. POC never treated right, and then white folk just say they are playing the race card. No the system played it.
I agree, it's not a democracy in this country, it's just dressed up to look like one but the veil is extremely thin.
The post office did kill them, government enabled it to kill them, our current government uses the NHS to kill trans women. Anyone who's not cis-het and white is a 2nd and 3rd class citizen in this country and many of us have basically no rights or protection under law at all.
This is our Royal Mail. And it can treat people in such an appalling way. Just shows you the Royal family doesn't care about what happens in their name. People expect a government to govern. Instead of playing politics with themselves.
evil criminal Vince Cable did this
ITV News At Ten is to be re-named ITV Opinions At Ten
and Channel 4 News is to be renamed Channel 4 Opinions.
How can they possibly give fair compensation to these people? You can't quantify the suffering they've endured, you can't bring these people back to life or undo the damage to their mental and social wellbeing.
Why is it all about racism now? You never mention racism toward white people, which is far more common.
wow – 62 post masters – committed suicide and wrongful convictions – Has any one in the Post office HQ been brought justice ?
Claims of racism are of course the most important factor in this situation. Don't go questioning how this is being reported, that would be very bad.
The individuals responsible should be exposed and not allowed to hide behind 'Post Office',
Otherwise all that happens is that everyone condemns it but no-one is ever brought to account.
NOT all those imprisoned have been released. Private Eye magazine revealed that one sub postmaster asserted his innocence, but has been refused a case review. Horizon has been ignored in his case.
More white people was prosecuted than Asians.
And you are trying to play the race card. Despite being treated the same way as everyone else.
Any excuse to play the race card 😂😂😂😂
What a dreadful country we have become
Huge lawsuits

Imagine taking your life because lies being spread by the POS Post Office. Shame on you. Shame on the government.
I cringe every time I think how these poor people were treated, but this latest revelation is just too much.
No amount of money can compensate what was done to them and their families, they deserve justice that only prison time for decision makers can bring. But we are unlikely to ever see this happen. Disgraceful.
So they were guilty of fraud and corruption then! Then they use the race card to get back at royal mail.
They can always just leave the uk.
Post Office/Fujitsu did a real number on these poor people. Modern day slavery.
