Former post office operator critical of efforts of lobbyists who warn against mass lawsuits in UK
Opinion: Our Post Office victory is being twisted
Alan Bates has warned of a “concerted effort” by big business to constrain access to the kind of funding that allowed the post office operators to bring a landmark case against their former employer.
In an article for the Guardian, Bates, who exposed the Horizon scandal that has been described as one of the UK’s “greatest miscarriages of justice”, said ministers should push forward with legislation to protect the litigation funding sector.
