Utter disaster’: Alan Bates attacks schemes compensating post office scandal victims. 7 schemes. £1.5bn paid from public purse, could hit £3.5bn. Zero contribution by Fujitsu, PO execs, lawyers, accountants, advisers, other perpetrators. No one charged for false criminal convictions.

Brexit has been catastrophic for the creative industry and the people working in it. "The paperwork involved, and the quick-turnaround nature of shooting, has meant that it is simply easier to not bother auditioning UK talent."

What happened to the execs who ruined lives during the Post Office scandal? Fujitsu execs, accountants, lawyers also made millions from the scandal. All living in comfort. None fined, prosecuted. Even when that happens, litigation will last for years. The UK legal system doesn't deliver justice.

A study by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) shows that estimates about the damage done by Brexit have underestimated its impact over the course of a decade. Data now suggests that Brexit has reduced UK GDP by 6%–8%, reduced investment 12%–18%, and reduced productivity by 3%–4%. 🇬🇧🇪🇺
