What happened: Betty Brown, the oldest victim of the Post Office scandal, said King Charles described the scandal as 'dreadful' during an honour ceremony. She accepted the award on behalf of all those affected.
Why it matters:
- Acknowledges the wrongful treatment of Post Office workers in a long-running scandal
- Brings public attention to the need for justice and reform in the postal system
MNN Take: The recognition highlights ongoing efforts to address past injustices linked to the Post Office's faulty IT system, which led to wrongful prosecutions and hardship for many workers.
