The BEIS & HMG Complaint

The maladministration complaint is documented over 50 pages supported by considerable evidence.  It utterly demolishes the nonsensical claim HMG runs out year after year that:-  ‘Although Post Office Ltd is 100% owned by the Government, the company operates at arm’s length as an independent commercial business’

The complaint also seeks financial redress, not just to recover the costs of the legal action, but also for all other losses the group suffered which would have formed part of further trials if Post Office had not been allowed to use HMG’s open wallet to run us out of money in the court at any cost.  A decision we say HMG was fully involved with as it had a seat on the Post Office committee, codenamed 'Project Sparrow', that had been set up to manage the legal action.   The figure we are now seeking is significantly more than we had been looking for just to recover costs as it aims to return the victims to a position they should have been in had Post Office not ruined their lives.
 
A considerable amount of documentation in support of our complaint has been submitted as well as it listing numerous references to incidents, meetings, reports and emails that we suggest the Ombudsman should investigate further.   We don’t have to fully prove our case to the Ombudsman we only need to show that there is a case that needs investigating, and the JFSA submission goes far beyond that.
 
The complaint is a hard hitting no holds barred document, that we believe utterly condemns HMG in the way it has conspired with Post Office over the years to allow it to operate a reign of terror and intimidation of its Subpostmasters in order to keep the failures of the Horizon system hidden at any cost.

Since the complaint was submitted to the Ombudsman the JFSA has held a number of meetings with them and provided further evidence in support of the complaint.  We expect to receive a report on the complaint during Spring 2022.
