I'm sympathetic to blanket exonerations via legislation for #PostOffice #Horizon erroneous prosecutions, but I'm a little queasy about a Govt. legislating to quash convictions en-masse.

The Govt. will say that 'this will not create a precedent' in the very act of creating a precedent - Its not hard to see a temptation to do it again in a less clear-cut case.

it would be better for the #ruleoflaw, as the judiciary suggested, to have been fast-tracked batched appeals through the court system!
