This woman needs to go to jail 👍😡
-
She is a blatant liar. Why hasn’t she been locked up
-
Lock her up and take her money.
-
Lock her up.
-
She acted with deliberate malice , many of the prosecutions were carried out years after it became known there was a software problem , no one stopped to ask themselves why hundreds of normal rational hitherto blameless people suddenly embarked on criminal activity. Perverting the course of justice and perjury calls for a long jail sentence what that evil woman did is totally unforgivable .
-
Vennells is a disgrace and should be locked up
-
should be jailed and ALL the huge .... HUGE ,...payments & bonuses & pension payments she received from post office given back to ALL postmasters ( or their families if they have tragically past ).
-
If those at the top of the Post Office dont get jail terms, this process is a waste of time.
-
She belongs behind bars….
-
JAIL! Then sell her assets as proceeds of crime.
-
This woman and her cronies should be jailed for blatantly using public money to prosecute the innocent postal workers
-
This is a good man honourable and just, restores one's faith in humanity.
-
Vennells is pure evil , she could have stopped all this.......jail for life
-
Jail.
-
So much respect for the integrity of Lord Arbuthnot.
-
Jail her
-
She needs to end her days in jail.
-
Absolutely agree , she lied, its on tape, she ruined countless lives, reclaim her bonuses and pay incentives , should face trial for perjury at the very least
-
She'll apologize and want to draw a line under the whole thing. It's what rich, powerful people do eh! I would like to see proper justice but I suspect there'll be none. Too many skeletons for too many powerful people.
-
Without doubt, withholding pertinent information about previous cases because it would be detrimental to present cases under investigation is tantamount to lying. Paula Vennells therefore should be found guilty of perjury and jailed.
