Overcast here in Meanwood.I have nothing planned today.Another dull day in the life of Postman.

Good morning from a bright, sunny but not that warm Suffolk where the first coffee of the day has just been finished. Whatever I do later on will have to involve avoiding parts of Ipswich - with 30,000 people heading for Portman Road plus countless others in the area hoping to celebrate promotion to the Premier League I think it could be quite busy.

As it should be other than oval ones which no real eat in Fish and chip shop will be seen without. All other plate shapes can do one, though my biggest issues with plates is hot food served on cold plates.

Drizzle seems to have stopped but dull overcast and totally uninspiring out. Car had a triple shop visit, first up replacing the ebikes normal Saturday visit to Waitrose. Store annoyingly being moved around, seems the long "closed temporarily" bakery counter has vanished so aisles being lengthened. Presumably additional lines are going to be stocked.
Then to a Simply Food for gift card free Cumberland Pie, Ice Buns and yellow label HCBs. Finally to Morrisons where a box of Patch Fix reduced the number of Toblerones to two in order to use the £10 off £40 voucher.

One thing I have not heard mention of in the POL Inquiry is "exculpatory evidence". When they decided to withold evidence of systemic/system-wide bugs, surely they were breaking the law.

From a on-line legal dictionary, I read:

"When a prosecutor has access to any type of exculpatory evidence, he is required by law to disclose the evidence to the defense. Failure to disclose exculpatory evidence may result in a dismissal of the case, or in the declaration of a mistrial".

The short answer is yes it's partly why the court of appeal has over turned convictions.
That's a US legal term in British law it comes under disclosure rules of evidence. The inquiry has a number of times linked documents it now holds to examples of cases it has been using. This stuff trends to come up in the more legal "dry" days of questions that most press don't cover. You will notice that a number of documents got marked "legally sensitive" by POL. The inquiry has been looking at how they applied the legal test of none discloser to the documents. Remember unlike most court cases they hold legal power do private processions. (The only other organisation allowed to do so is the RSPCA) When challenged in court on none discloser they presented things in a way to prevent discloser. Or basically claimed it did not exist or covered it up. The legal company they used had only ever done defence work so often let the POL take the lead believing what they said about documents. The last few day have shown how it's staff messed up when things become clear what was happening.

there are legal reasons to withhold it. I think if withholding it prevents another crime

You can in British law it's untimely down to the judge if it meets the test for none disclosure of evidence.
You'd have to have good grounds it not easy to refuse disclose. The only other form of none disclosure is Public-interest immunity or Crown privilege. The bar for this is very high and only used if the public are at risk or matter of national security. Only the state can apply for it. Yesterday the inquiry showed at one point the post office looked if it could get one. When it got desperate to cover things up.

They always seem to overcook the mushrooms IME.

Strange. Just noticed the M&S Simply shop used a couple of 10% off Sparks offer, but they took 10% off the full price of the yellow label HCBs.

That's the way I would do them myself, but that is probably because that's how my mother always does them and I grew up with it.
