Blair challenged over Post Office scandal in Davos
Tony Blair has refused to be drawn on claims that he was warned about potential problems with Fujitsu’s Horizon software in 1998 – before it rolled out to Post Offices across the UK.
The former prime minister, who is attending the World Economic Forum in Davos, was reportedly advised to allow the roll out to proceed rather than risk damaging Britain’s relationship with Japan.
