Reporting from the inquiry | |
During the short morning break I chatted to former sub-postmaster Lee Castleton, who says he thinks today is all about the finer detail. | |
He calls it "refreshing" that Paula Vennells is able to "admit not doing something, misreading or misrepresenting something" when she's shown paperwork and correspondence by the inquiry. | |
"I respect that, I really do," he tells me. "We all make mistakes - but I still feel let down by the fact she didn't act." | |
Going into the afternoon session, Castleton says the big question is whether Vennells truly made mistakes in her handling of the Horizon scandal, as she claims, or if she was part of a cover-up. | |
"And those people that were complicit in that, if that was the case, need to named." | |
He adds that the mood in the room is "a lot more relaxed" than yesterday, Vennells' first day of evidence. | |
