Former postal affairs minister Jo Swinson said ex-Post Office chief executive Paula Vennells had told her “with something of a pained expression” that subpostmasters “had their fingers in the till”.
In her witness statement, the former Liberal Democrats leader said: “On another occasion I recall Ms Vennells explaining to me in a tone of taking me into her confidence, with something of a pained expression, that while it was a sad situation, the reality was that some subpostmasters ‘had their fingers in the till’ or something to that effect.”
