the post office scandal saw hundreds of former sub—postmasters wrongly convicted of theft and fraud onasis of incorrect data from a faulty it system. tim brentnall�*s life was destroyed by the scandal, but, 10 years after he was prosecuted, he has cleared his name and is celebrating a very special new arrival. our reporter fi lamdin went to meet him. steph and i have joked about it, but it's also been a little bit of a joke in the postmaster group that he's already got perhaps two dozen grandmothers looking after him. everyone in the group has been with us on thatjourney and everyone is so happy for him. everyone has been overjoyed with it. lando was the first baby of the group and you know what a baby does to most people. everybody sort of goes a bit soft and gooey. it's a dream come true. we wanted a child for many years and with steph going through cancer treatment, we had to wait for a while. i don't think, ten years ago, i would have thought we could have been this happy. we've really got this wonderful, brilliant little man to focus on. good morning. the subpostmasters fighting f

not know the details, really, because i was not involved at all but it feels a bit like the post office scandalts, just the system and so on, does not mean they are guilty and i think if there is an important legacy for the man, it is that we must question who benefits from these things and whether we really are king at someone or something that has got out of control. but as a man, a human being, miss him.- out of control. but as a man, a human being, miss him. what do you think ou human being, miss him. what do you think you would _ human being, miss him. what do you think you would have _ human being, miss him. what do you think you would have gone _ human being, miss him. what do you think you would have gone on - human being, miss him. what do you think you would have gone on to - human being, miss him. what do you think you would have gone on to do? | think you would have gone on to do? we will talk about later the sheer number of commitments he had outside of business, sitting on the boards of business, sitting on the boards of charities and the like but where do you think you would have

so in britain we have the post office scandal and all those hundreds of postmasters. terrible . mike lynch was terrible. mike lynch was a billionaire. he's a billionaire with the most extraordinary intellect and with the most extraordinary resilience he dug down. and undoubtedly he would have been in prison if it weren't for his wealth, his intelligence, his commitment. but who wants to lose 10 or 12 years of your life doing that? but he did that. and i think thatis but he did that. and i think that is a lesson that we have to learn now on both sides of the atlantic. when business gets into government and owns the law, we're all of us vulnerable, all of us. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and this is something that mike was actually speaking out. quite passionately about very recently after he was committed, sorry, acquitted. he was saying and i quote directly, it has to be wrong for a us prosecutor to have more power over british citizens in england than us, than uk police do. he was talking about what he sees and feels passionately about an imbalance between a uk us extraditio

we've seen it with the scandal at the post office, and we've seen it with other organisations in thell. any big organisation has a reputation to protect, and, you know, i've seen examples before when the bbc sort of circles the wagons and to try to protect its reputation. that is one issue. i think there is another issue, and this is nothing to do with the jermaine jenas affair. this this is something that i've observed from before, that it has an issue with presenters , has an issue with presenters, celebrities, you know , celebrities, you know, correspondents that it sort of puts on a pedestal and pays huge amounts of money. 100, 200, 300, £400,000. and that creates, i think, some cultural issues in the organisation. it, it puts these people on too big a pedestal and that creates a distance between them and some of the other members of staff. and i think what is needed is a reset to understand so that everyone understands what's expected of them. if they're one of these sort of high profile individuals that's paid a huge amount of money, the standards that are expected and also to

post with a scandal. the command stated that the popular officer was sent for promotion, but he linked his dismissal withusal of an obviously impossible combat mission. the servicemen he commanded even recorded a video message in which they asked zelensky and the minister of defense to return him to his post. by the way, it was this the brigade, as well as other ukrainian units, are now disintegrating into atoms under bombs and missiles in the kursk region. the famous russophobe , who is also a military expert, bilt julian röbke, does not hide his bewilderment. the situation in the pokrovsky direction is critical: the defense in several areas has collapsed and has not stabilized, largely due to a lack of personnel. the diversion of almost a brigade to an offensive on the kursk region, devoid of strategic meaning, borders on mental inadequacy. of course, there are still more questions than answers. somehow. it turned out, who is to blame, who will be punished, rewarded, what will all this lead to. one thing is clear: once again, from the wishes of zelensky, who cannot come to terms with objective reality,

whether it's the infected blood, the post office, hillsborough, all of these scandals where ordinarynments do not get these things sorted . things sorted. >> and returning briefly, if we could, to the keir starmer speech earlier on, i was struck by the fact he didn't seem in a placatory mood talking about the riots , the social unrest that we riots, the social unrest that we saw across the uk. there's been no move towards a more expansive reconciliatory conversation from some of those working class communities that were impacted. the seven most deprived areas in britain, the seven highest areas for asylum seekers where those riots broke out, rather than there being a conversation about how can we understand the back story . instead, it was talking story. instead, it was talking about a fuel of populism that drove this talk about a deeply unhealthy society we learned a few moments ago. there are only 100 places left in the male prison system. there seems to be no appetite for keeping these kind of people out of jail. >> well, i asked the prime minister's spokesman at the lobby briefin
