PM on 'appalling' Post Office software scandal
The jailing of Post Office staff after software problems was 鈥渙ne of the biggest miscarriages of justice in our history鈥, Boris Johnson has said.
He was answering Conservative MP and former sub-postmaster Duncan Baker who called for a 鈥減roper judge-led public inquiry鈥 to bring justice to victims of the 鈥渉orrendous accounting scandal鈥 caused by Horizon software.
More than 700 people were wrongly convicted of offences of theft, fraud and false accounting.
