2 ‘Dynamite’ secret contract exposes Post Office and Fujitsu deal

 

22 dec 2025

A new document – a secret contract with Fujitsu – blows open the Post Office scandal which saw hundreds of innocent post masters prosecuted.

The Horizon IT scandal saw men and women who’d run Post Offices up and down the country persecuted – and many prosecuted – for false accounting and theft.

They’d always said they were innocent – that the Horizon computer system was faulty, that the accounts must have been altered.

The Post Office maintained for decades both things were untrue. Tonight, we reveal the document that shows the postmasters were right, and the Post Office and Fujitsu knew all about it.

As the Post Office Inquiry continues to hear testimony, more and more details are coming to light about who knew what when.

Back in 2019, the Post Office spent at least a-hundred-million pounds still defending the Horizon system when more than five hundred subpostmasters won their landmark settlement.

Tonight, we’ve seen documents that appear to show that the Post Office Board was aware of the Horizon system’s failures back in 2013 – indeed it was so worried about a potential miscarriage of justice that it alerted its insurers.

More shocking revelations from secret recordings obtained by Channel 4 News show that Post Office boss Paula Vennells was briefed about allegations of a “covert operations teams” – and that it could remotely alter sub-postmasters accounts from Fujitsu’s HQ without them knowing.That was in 2013. Seven years later, in letters to a parliamentary committee, Paula Vennells insisted she had been told by Fujitsu this was not possible.

Meanwhile the Post Office had taken innocent sub-postmasters to court, saying they must have stolen money when their accounts failed to add up – a miscarriage of justice that the tapes also reference.

generally means to set two or more people or groups

  4. Negative connotation: The phrase often carries a negative connotation, suggesting that it is not a healthy or productive way to resolve differences or achieve goals.
