What on earth was this man paid for ? Hopefully more information will come out in the Criminal Trials, this kind of " don't know ,didn't ask " from senior management is what led to the Prosecution of innocent people
Lawyer here. I commented on Singh’s previous evidence and was stunned at his dishonest performance, but this time round I feel even more sickened. Whenever I instructed external lawyers or experts, I was all over the matters involved, seeing my role as an informed client and often challenging what came back to ensure the best possible advice/outcome. It beggars belief what this guy did, or more specifically didn’t do. At best he was incompetent and lazy, and at worse he was negligent caring not a jot for the potential miscarriages of justices that emanated from his feckless hands!
I don't really understand why defence cousel didn't go to the judge and say "We NEED this information, if necessary for commercial interests, hold the hearing in camera". Seriously, how TF did the Post Office get away with witholding information that was vital to the defence?
He denies everything unless it shows him in a good light and then miraculously his memory seems to recover. He shifts the blame onto others and if I got a £ for every time he said “ I don’t know”, “I don’t remember”, “I don’t recall”, “I wasn’t the decision maker” I would be as wealthy as Paula V having just received her bonus for turning the business around.
I think you will find most managers/MP's are like this anything but the real truth just so they & the companies/Gov look good, keep getting fat pay & the next cushy appointmnt with a gold plated pension & to hell with the normal people.
He’s incompetent at best. Probably just incompetent and shouldn’t have been doing his job. Rodrick I think was lying for sure, you could tell by his mannerisms
@@85ABCFar more than incompetent. He was the senior criminal lawyer at P. O.(despite being unqualified) notice how quickly he tries to palm off all questions by naming others. He will be definitely be facing criminal charges and professional disbarrment.
This man has ruined many peoples lives and helped in the suicides of others. Perhaps some of the victims have friends that could have a quiet chat with him to explain why he should walk with a permanent limp to remind himself of the pain he has caused.
@vivienrweston3544 I understand your frustration but this really should go on for this long. It stands for all to see in stark contrast to the sham trials of all the wronged post masters. Once they have been allowed to squirm and wriggle and twist and lie in front of the eyes of the whole disbelieving nation, it is then that they should all be put in prison.
I've seen so much footage of this inquiry and it never ceases to amaze me how the POL employees and associates claim they have no recollection and then immediately recollect very precisely that someone else was responsible. They also claim not to have said something which is then produced in an email they wrote upon which they try to re-write the English language in order to have their words mean something completely different to what is written. Jarnail Singh is one of the most transparent liars in this whole debacle. And that's saying something.
His only experience is PROPERTY LAW and CONVEYANCING so how the frickin hell did he become head of criminal law at the PO. This only goes to show just how bad the PO was run.
We've seen some right characters in this Inquiry but this cretin is right up there - I don't know those people - her emails were annoying and I didn't respond to them - etc! Jason is formidable!
At first I took JS to be a bumbling fool, out of his depth, running to stand still. But time and again, his past actions display deliberate obtuse methods, ambiguous language and a continuous need to deflect responsibility. This was his skill set. This expertise in dissembling was what he was being paid for. He wasn't out of his depth, he was paddling in it, kicking up as much silt as he could to muddy the waters.
People’s lives were destroyed but none of the higher-ups were responsible. All confess they knew nothing, they knew no one else involved, it didn’t occur to me, not my area of responsibility, not under my control, I didn’t know, I didn’t know, I didn’t know. And for such competence they were paid huge executive salaries. And are they now on large pensions? As minimum, minuscule consequence all of them should lose those pensions because, after all, by their own words they were not in control, or in other words, they did nothing to earn a salary and so, no pension-they did nothing but look the other way.
A trained lawyer who claims he doesn't know how to store a document on his PC. Absolute cobblers. His email address is on the bottom of the documents stored on his PC, so who else had access to his PC to store the documents? Do many lawyers who handle and store confidential documents in relation to their work, often let others access their PC? This man is a World Class liar, with chocolate topping and glitter.....
All of these liars should serve time in prison and I hope for as long as possible.What in fact will happen is compensation is paid in paltry amounts and Post Office staff walk away scott free.The great british justice system again Bentley and Craig.Ashamed to be English.
it does not take an inquiry to prove post office senior bosses lied about the horizon system & allowed innocent people to go to jail. This should be a court case against the post office bosses
It seems there was lots of legal discussion within the PO about legal process, but no one was actually in charge of anything, or in charge of fixing the. bugs and errors.
Oh they were alright, but nobody wants to hold their hand up and admit anything because there's an almighty pile of crap flying through the air, and none of them want it landing in their lap....
"It wasn't me, I wasn't there, I knew fuck all about it, and it was somebody else anyway. My job was to lie through my teeth and pocket a massive paycheque." Justice will be served when he is serving prison time and has ALL his assets stripped to go towards compensating the victims of the gross miscarriage of justice he colluded in.
Yeah simple stuff, if you get an email calling you agreed something and you think you didn't agree, reply all and tell them to make it clear. . Secondly, if you get an email and don't know what that person's roles is, double click their name and check their group memberships for internal senders or the domain name for cc: recipients.. easier still, just look at their effing email signature. Having said that, it could be this guy was getting stitched up by others and wasn't clever or devious enough to manage it.
Jarnail - to mess something up totally, to create a whole new level of incompetence. eg oh no, I've jarnailed this cruise ship by sailing far too close to a small Italian island that I didn't know was there.
All of the people at the top of the PO knew of the problems with Horizon from the very first installation of it. It cost millions to put in and they were going to stick with it no matter the cost to the people who used it, ie the sub postmasters. If it was faulty and they knew, then where did all the money go that the sub postmasters put in to cover so called losses. It can only be put into someone’s pocket at some point. They all, management, had their hands in the till, not the sub postmasters.

This man Jarnail Singh is an outright liar and bullshit artist - how does he have a job anywhere anymore
He tried to rob his sister of her inheritance whenbtheir dad died.thouroughly shit person
Knighthood for Mr Beer KC, please and thank you.
Second my nomination we can get him an MBE 🤣 need to find a third though
@@markmcintyre9893 The man’s a genius. So entertaining to watch.
Bent as a corkscrew.
His arrogance believed he was untouchable. In the spotlight he's scrabbling around looking for the shadows.
@@SimonDover No scrabbling around that I can see. He’s being asked about things he isn’t aware of. How would you answer?

What a clown that guy is .. and a terrible liar who clearly likes the sound of his own voice
He can only remember things that suits him. This is lying on oath
Like the rest of them, just more pathetic in his scrabbling round desperately as if he did nothing wrong.
I wrote the paragraph, but I don't know what it means. That is the answer of a liar or an idiot. Either, or both, could apply to Singh.
He is very lying, not making eye contact.
he's lying=he opened his mouth

What is “independency”? This man is a liar and an idiot. Singh is the most mendacious and incompetent witness this enquiry has questioned.

"I can't even operate a printer"....
It wasn’t his job. His job spec didn’t say open printer so he got someone else to do it. Like everything else
I'm aching to see William's final report

He is showing how incompetent he was.
I don’t know anything, i never heard anything, i didn’t see anything, i don’t know how to do anything…in short, Singh, who are you? 😂

The POL witness who was already in the deepest hole at the start of his oral evidence, yet still he kept on digging. Liar Extraordinaire.
He was only a liar in his youth!
I didn’t know what was going on, I was only followed orders🤮
“I wasn’t looking at anything.” That is the problem. He took his pay each week but didn’t look into anything.
‘I wasn’t looking for anything….’ EXACTLY! That’s the point man, what did you actually do? What training had he done, seems to have no skeptism at all
The over-explaining is a red flag to me.

Liar....
She was a nuisance, she kept asking questions that I didn’t understand. *( but I didn’t bother to find out what she was asking )
“I wrote that, but I don’t know what it means?”
Nothing was his fault. Beer should ask him what he actually does or did, seems he did nothing, should be paying his salary back to the PO
How on earth does a lawyer write something, and not know what it means. Absolute garbage...
What exactly was his role at the PO?
Apparently he was a letterbox…
I dont know anybody,never saw anything, what a liar !
Singh is lying as he continues to answer with assumptions.
Naj Liar (anagram of his first name) just an observation
He’s obviously lying by his body language.
It was everyone else gov.
For a lawyer he is as thick as 2 planks or a very good actor.
I'll go for the second option....
He's obviously lying, his body language and his answers to the questions sticks out a mile, not me gove I know nothing
