According to Wikipedia š§š, their account of The UK Post Office Scandal is as follows:

The AI Overview about conviction dates conflict between 1999 and 2000. It reads as follows:


Paula Vennells background includes the fact that :
Her mother a great-granddaughter of Sir James Watts of Abney Hall, mayor of Manchester in the 1850s and grandfather of Conservative party member of Parliament James Watts.
Now according to AI Overview, Paula Vennells 'contribution' / involvement/ timeline with the Post Office began in January, 2007 - 12 years service in total. According to the AI Overview, her movements were as follows:



As you can see from the following article, the Post Office extended a contract with Fujitsu due to alleged difficulties.

So what's the problem now I hear you ask? Many unanswered questions methinks.
In 2019 Vennells became the chair of the Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, but left the role the following year And Ill come back to this role in part 2. In-between leaving the Post Office and becoming Chair in the NHS, Vennells:
In February 2019 it was announced that she would step down from her Post Office role, and that month she was appointed as a non-executive board member at the Cabinet Office.
Sorry? 'She would step down' so she did not officially 'resign then'? In the same month she appointed as a non-executive board member at the Cabinet Office. Are alarm bells ringing yet?
I have now found this:
Did Paula Vennells resign from the Post Office?
UK government officials expressed serious doubts about Paula Vennells' suitability as the chief executive of the Post Office and considered sacking her in 2014, five years before she RESIGNED, the inquiry into the Horizon IT scandal has heard.

At this juncture, let's take a look to see if Vennell is mentioned by the UK government (dispatches š§š) .....and here it is in black and white. An announcement was published on 7th February 2019 obviously the 2 decisions (leaving the Post Office and starting a role in the UK government DIGITAL Cabinet Office) was being totally orchestrated.

I will continue in Part 2.
