Mr Bates vs the Post Office

[bluemonkey71]

For those that don't know Gareth Jenkins was the IT architect for Fujitsu, he is most certainly going to prison.

Well he could argue he designed it and didnt code it. Suspect there will be multiple people dragged into it

There are just far too many people calling him a **** for it to be a coincidence?

HR protect the company. End of. The ‘little man’ doesn’t stand a chance when HR get involved.

as a former Union workplace rep who dealt with everything from disciplinary to national wage negotiations so I dealt with HR several times per week. I can confirm that is the way the work - which is why it makes sense to join a recognised union so you have someone going into bat with you

I hope the woman with purple hair goes mental on him

Wow his performance assessment even says he was trying to protect Horizon reputation. Fucker

Multiple people that have ALREADY been dragged into it, Anne Chambers of Fujitsu is another that has already been charged and under police investigation.
Gareth's particular problem is that he will face very serious perjury and perverting the course of justice charges, all of which seemingly have already been proved during the inquiry and that is before he himself has appeared!
He has been scheduled to appear twice but on the eve of both scheduled appearances POL suddenly found and disclosed further documents relating to him which meant his evidence has to be delayed, call me a cynic but it seems to me that POL are keen that Jenkins is put off for as long as possible

watched all of that -(off ill today).

What a twat. Reminds me of a character Ciaran Hinds played in Prime Suspect 3.
Wanted to beat the living shit out of him.

Well that scouser was a belligerent twat.

The word expert is thrown around like confetti. As someone who has worked in the IT industry for 30 years, I couldn't claim it. Experienced maybe but not an expert. And as we know there are lot of people in jobs who shouldn't be there and when the systems go down they are found hidden in the toilets while the real 'experts' are the ones fixing the issues. Thankfully worked for companies that were decent rather than the Fujitsu's and the Cap Gemini's of the world. Unsurprising these crap consultancies get all the Government contracts aswell.

God, this corporate speak reminds me of the Further Education College I worked for 30 years prior to retiring early in 2019. The College Principal has married the Head of HR ( his second wife as his first had sadly passed away). Therefore a lot of things were decided between them, I would surmise. While I personally think this Principal did some good things for the College he could be a vindictive, nasty bullying **** to anyone who opposed him or his instructions. The thing I always remember, that our then Head of Health and Safety (another bullying ****), told me his job is primarily to stop the Principal and College getting sued, funnily enough I always thought fis first duty was to ensure correct health and safety practices and procedures for all College, staff, students, and visitors. Prior to periodic scottish Office inspections of the College there was a lot of overrnight shredding of documents dumped in black bags by the senior management team. A lot of good people had to leave the college due to being hounded out, maybe this is symptomatic of all institunions like universities, NHS trusts, I don’t know.
