More than 900 people were convicted of theft, fraud and false accounting because of faults in Horizon.

Had it not been for the heroic (and I do mean that word) works of AlanBates many would not have received justice

Sadly, 251 postmasters wrongly accused of stealing from their own tills passed away before receiving final compensation.

We should honour their names somehow.

@Geri I think you meant "were hounded to death" not "passed away".
Some killed themselves, some tried and failed, but all were destroyed and labelled as untrustworthy to their community, so they "sent to Coventry".

@epistatacadam well, yes but I was trying to think of a blanket term xxx

@Geri as per vanity fair we need to return to honest straight talk in public. A lie is a lie, not an alternative fact. It remains true that the PO board lied to all who would listen to them, so did Fujitsu, and the prosecution witnesses in court.
