Opening Prime Ministerâs Questions, the Labour leader said Rishi Sunak's focus should be on the "chaos" facing prisons.

A secret audio recording obtained by ITV News has revealed Post Office boss Paula Vennells was told directly about problems with the Horizon system and warned not to cover them up. In a meeting with independent investigators from Second Sight on July 2, 2013, Ms Vennells was made aware of allegations that sub-postmaster branch accounts could be accessed remotely. This is something the Post Office had denied for years. She was also told by investigators that the companyâs position in denying Horizon faults was both âdangerousâ and "stupid", according to the recording. Report by Czubalam.
