"Post Office Scandal: Racism, Cronyism, and Corruption Exposed"

Seven Post Office workers of South Asian heritage believe racism affected the way they were treated in the Horizon scandal, with some feeling spoken down to and falsely accused due to their race and accent. The scandal saw 700 sub-postmasters prosecuted from 1999 to 2015, with a public inquiry ongoing. The workers claim they were accused of false accounting, theft, or fraud due to data from the faulty Horizon IT system, and some were made to feel like foreigners and idiots. The Post Office has apologized for using racist terms and is aiming to provide compensation for affected postmasters.
