Post Office scandal: Government has not done enough to ensure compensation for victims, committee of MPs finds
news.sky.com/story/post-o...
Govt has taken "insufficient action" to ensure Post Office scandal victims get fair and timely compensation.
Scandals within scandals. Four complicated schemes. Postmasters bludgeoned into
accepting low payouts.
No one charged for perverting justice and destroying lives.

You kidnap mothers on the street and leave their young children alone and crying. You think this is funny.
God wants to know, how dare you call yourselves Christians?

Good morning & welcome to Whiskers Wednesday
A smile is a bridgeβsoft, silent, and strong enough to carry hope from one heart to another.
Smile at someone today. It might be the sunshine they didnβt know they needed.

Album cover for Marillion's "Misplaced Childhood," featuring a boy in a red military jacket holding a bird, with a rainbow, clouds, flowers, and the bandβs name in the background.
Released 40 years ago today.
I was 13 years old growing up in St Andrews with no record store. So I begged my dad to make a 24 mile round trip to Dundee on the day of release just to pick up a copy of this album.
