Inflation - what's that asks the government !!!!
« on: October 04, 2012, 07:26:40 AM »
How can only 3 civil servants be suspended over this rail franchise balls up ?

Seems they forgot to add inflation into their equation ...oh and those pesky passenger that look likely to need to use a rail service more in the future . How bloody inconvenient of them  noooo:

So they cock up the process and cost taxpayers £40 million squid in the process. Outfuckingrageous !!!!!

So why isn't the minister in charge taking responsibility for this ?  He after all must have some responbillity to review this especially when the outcome was likely to be so contentious  noooo:

The responsible minister has already gone .... replaced in Cameron's re-shuffle some weeks ago .... which was about the time when Branson started kicking off and the truth was made known to many. Can't in all honesty expect the new minister to resign as he is blameless (at least in this particular fiasco).

How does it cost £40m?
They just have to alter a couple of formulae in Excel and it will print "Branson Wins".

Even if they use really posh parchment I can't see it costing £40m.
