  1. Seriously?

    This guy is deluded and arrogant, plus unrepentant

    Can he not see the massive amount of evidence that the figures were bollocks

  2. I guess it’s possible some are not innocent. However given the time and misery let them all off regardless.

  3. ‘See that dead guy who is, eh, too dead to defend himself. Aye, he was definitely guilty.’

  4. > Counsel to the inquiry, Jason Beer KC, asked the former investigator: “When you made a witness statement, did you think that Mr Quarm continued to be guilty of the crime of embezzlement?”

    > Mr Grant replied: “Yes I did.”

    > There were at times long pauses between questions as Mr Grant’s answers came. When asked whether he still believed Mr Quarm was guilty he said: “Yes I do.”

    > The counsel to the inquiry went on: “Despite the verdict of the High Court of Judiciary in Scotland?

    > Mr Grant said: “Yes.”

    > Asked whether that remained his view, the former investigator said: “In my mind, I still think Mr Quarm had a role to play in the loss of the money.”

    Fucking hell. I’d been reading about this for years in the Eye, but it’s still so grim when you see things like this from people who cannot admit that people were driven to their graves by the likes of them.

  5. >Mr Grant also complained he hadn’t been paid for the time he had spent preparing to give evidence to the inquiry, adding he had been made to conduct research “in my own personal time” and had “spent some time in my sick bed reading” while preparing to give evidence.

    What a risible prick

  6. The Piers Morgan playbook.

    That said if I was a sub postmaster while people were getting nicked for stealing they didn’t do, I’d empty the till every third Tuesday.
