  • Corporate management culture against the “little people”. Obviously they hadn’t reckoned on dealing with someone of substance like Alan Bates. The man’s a national hero.
  • If it wasn't for the tenacity of this man, the Post Office would have got away with everything. These are the kind of people we need running our country.
  • Mr Bates should be remembered for his bravery for standing up against a serious injustice. Legend.
  • @EmptyGlass99
    Some people from the post office need to face jail time. Nothing else would be justice.
  • @GpoppaJohn
    This man deserves a knighthood for his tenacity and for lifting people out of sheer desperation, giving them their hope and integrity back, all in the name of justice.
  • One law for the rich and powerful and one for the poor, until Alan Bates came and gave them a lesson in honesty and respect.
  • The country is in debt to this man for his bravery. And the sooner the police investigate the sooner people should be protected
  • @Itchicoo-Park
    What superb prime minister Alan Bates would make - a calm, ethical guy with a strong moral backbone. Something sadly lacking in Parliament nowadays.....
  • The fact that he is referred to as Bates rather than Mr Bates tells us all what the Post Office thought about people that were supposedly in partnership with.
  • This man's main advantage in this is that he presents as calm, organised, thorough and logical. Not raving or illogical.
  • Over 20 years fighting and suffering. 1 man bringing many together to take on all in his way.What a truly incredible, humble, warrior of a man with utter integrity. A man that is rare, that is of principle, morality and of standards that few at the very top of society display and should learn from Alan. Alan you are a hero and may the Gods give you the strength to see this through so that the wrong doers are accountable and receive the correct punishment fir their dishonourable and abhoric behaviour.

    Alan Bates deserves a very substantial monetary reward, let’s say 10 times the total amount Paula Vennells received during her years at the post office.
  • @homegrownpa
    A better day at work for Mr Beer, talking to a witness with a memory and a heart.
  • Jail required for the PO and Fujitsu bigwigs who knew the Horizon system was flawed, yet still pushed relentlessly to ruin peoples lives.
  • @splatten8597
    The lawyers working for the Post Office should be investigated as well!
  • @MrJonnyfied
    The poor go straight to jail. The rich and poweful get an inquiry.
  • The only person NOT being paid to be in that enquiry room is the very person who instigated them all being there earning millions and he STILL hasn’t been paid out 20 years later !!!!
  • This scandal CLEARLY demonstrates the very LOW-CALIBRE of ‘management’ both within the ‘public’ sector and the privatised utilities!
  • @ticticboom1
    Mr Bates' intelligence shines through this interview. The Post Office clearly underestimated him, in trying to dismiss his assessment.
