Horizon scandal: ‘I took blame for Post Office shortfall to protect my Mum’

1. > A man who says he falsely confessed to stealing money from his mother’s Post Office to protect her from going to prison is waiting to find out whether his conviction will be quashed.

   If this country wants to lead the way in being just and fair, his conviction should be quashed. This story is absolutely harrowing.

2. No view on this particular case, but there was definitely theft during this period. Can you imagine this playing out now.

3. It’s still perjury, though I hope it is quashed and hope no-one shows my mum this article…
