    Paula’s idea of being a CEO. It’s all Susan’s fault or I don’t recall. She’s bereft of understanding right and wrong, competent versus incompetent and scepticism versus blind faith.
    Watching her, promoted way beyond her capability. She might have made a nice server in a corner sweet shop. But even then, if she accidentally sold poison to customers, somehow she’d know it wasn’t her fault, it was everyone else that failed to check the label on the tin. And justify that she kept selling it regardless.

      there was a great example of this yesterday. several months prior to the inquiry she was asked to reflect on what she could have done differently. she submitted two witness statements to the inquiry - total about 800 pages, but avoided addressing this question, instead suggesting this info could be got out of her during her testimony. it was yesterday, 42 minutes into the official feed. the kc refers her to page 774, paragraph 1800, if you can find a transcript. she says she's 'keen' to answer these questions about what she would have differently ... when i give my evidence to the inquiry - on page 774 of her statement!

This isn't some matter of personal virtue- it's practically a necessity if you're an earnest businessperson. Anyone who truly couldn't recall this much from their tenure in a role is, as you say, grossly incompetent, but I think we all know she wasn't *that* incompetent, just truly malicious and self-serving.

    Again with amnesia! There must be something in the Post Office's water fountains.

    So she fake cries.. Cant feel very regretful. As she new she was throwing other ppls lives away. To avoid "headlines" Let the public decide the punishment.. But its the same everywhere in the world. Its easy to throw "the lower" ppl under the bus. Than stand up and take the heat yourself. Well, this will happen again, and again. In different forms. Power and money...

    It's a medical condition - amnesia.

      It's not a medical condition if you fake it.

    “I don’t remember” well how mighty convenient.

    Given her former position as Post Office CEO, her capacity for recollection of key events during her tenure appear to be poor at best. I would have thought that this would have been one of the most important qualifications in securing the job from the outset ? I therefore can only conclude, that this woman is clearly 'Lying through her teeth' & will do anything to avoid what ought to result in a Custodial Sentence.

    I believe that she should be prosecuted about where she has misled the attempts by the postmasters to get justice - and also if her memory and cognisance is so poor, the salary and bonuses she received should be returned by selling her assets. For this woman to be a Anglican Priest must also call into question their vetting procedures?
