Mr Bates vs the Post Office

[Big Joe Corrigan]

Many of you are missing the big picture here, Vennels was sent by God to put these people through trauma and total misery so that when they joined God by his side in the Kingdom of Heaven, they’d be much more prepared for the fight against evil, or something like that.

Amen.

Bless you, my son.

Finished it last night. My missus got visibly angry watching it. Don't know what it is more bewildering; the injustice that they're still to be officially exonerated, or that it's taken a glossy TV drama to make our establishment take real notice.

So everything Sunak/Government does from this point forward isn't about the issue they are addressing but merely to detract from the post office scandal?
Little of note happened yesterday, the hearing was about disclosure-I've watched every day of the hearing and even I got bored.
The interest generated by the drama will be nothing compared to the shit storm when the public enquiry concludes and announces it's findings.
Your comments are the exact equivalent of the Dippers saying that not mentioning our charges every day is evidence of a cover up!

@blueste41 everyone is entitled to an opinion and you feel I am acting all scouse, fair enough but....... this scandal has been going on for over 20 years and no one in Government has done anything about it. In 2015, 8 years ago it was headline news but died a death. 4 years ago the police started an investigation, now I know the Met are slow but we will all be dead by the time they make a decision. This current inquiry has been meandering along nicely without any political leader being accused of neglect. It is only when a TV programme is made that the shit hits the fan and the TV and tabloids are all over it. So forgive me for being cynical in thinking Sunak has bombed the Houthis to yet again take attention away from this disgraceful goverment backed miscarriage of justice. I just wonder why the rest of Europe aren't bombing them, don't they have Post Office scandals to cover up ?

I still can’t believe Vennells masqueraded as a priest, nearly making it to Bishop of London. The woman Is quite frankly disgusting and I hope she ends up in jail for what she has done.

Anyone can become a priest. It’s like any other job. You need to understand the recruitment process and then undergo the training course.

I knew the process a decade or so ago and could have become one even though I don’t believe in sky fairies.

It’s not though, is it?

Insomuch as getting a job it is.

Most jobs don’t require you to believe in something as a pre-requisite of being suitably qualified.

It’s like a company paying for you to do a degree/training so that you can do the job. So maybe not the same as a supermarket job, but similar to a graduate scheme that companies undertake.

I understood you were referring to the recruitment process: ‘getting a job’.

Most companies don’t recruit based on someone’s beliefs. Anyone saying they were joining most companies based on its enduring message to the wider world would be considered a nut job. Except maybe at Apple.
