Post Office latest: Paula Vennells wanted Post Office prosecutions to continue - lawyer - BBC News | |
(32 minutes later) | |
We've heard a lot about the views of Paula Vennells, the former Post Office chief executive between 2012 and 2019. | |
She took over as Post Office managing director in 2010, and stayed in the top job until she resigned in April 2019 over the scandal. | |
During her tenure, the Post Office repeatedly denied there were problems with the Horizon system. | |
This period saw the prosecution of more than 100 sub-postmasters, a failed mediation scheme, and the sub-postmasters' court case culminating in a victory in the High Court. | |
A part-time Church of England vicar, she became one of the most recognisable faces of the scandal, featuring prominently in the ITV drama Mr Bates vs the Post Office. | |
She was stripped of her CBE in February 2024, a month after she said she would hand back her title following the Horizon IT scandal. | |
