Paula Vennells told she was in 'la-la land' as ex-Post Office boss again breaks down in tears at Horizon inquiry
Ex-Post Office boss Paula Vennells has been accused of being in “la-la land” as she gave evidence for a third day at the Horizon IT inquiry.
Under tough questioning she again broke down in tears - something she has done multiple times in the last few days of testimony - as she said she “loved the Post Office”.
The 65-year-old ordained priest grew visibly upset, before pausing to compose herself and continuing: “I worked as hard as I possibly could to deliver the best Post Office for the UK.”
Sam Stein KC, a lawyer acting on behalf of a number of subpostmasters, responded: “That sounds like absolute rubbish.
“Ms Vennells, you’re not stupid,” he continued.
