Alan Bates has been in a two decade fight for justice leading the campaign for justcie for wronged submasters.

Former subpostmaster and campaigner Alan Bates has reportedly rejected a second offer of compensation over the Horizon IT scandal.

Mr Bates, whose two-decade fight for justice inspired the ITV series Mr Bates vs The Post Office, turned down a "derisory" offer from the Government earlier this year, which he said was only a sixth of what he had claimed.
