Yes people's lives ruined because we are spending too much on pointless bureaucracy, complex taxation over the top regulation. Money that could be spent on actual front line services being wasted in failed multi-billion pound IT projects.
failed multi-billion pound IT projects.
FFS. You see, there's idiots like me, that were pissed off with Labour (Iraq etc etc) and thought the Lib-Dems were probably 'okay'. Protest vote pretty much. I can understand people being pissed off with that*, but it's a mistake born out of a naivity rather than evil. But to still be backing them now, and spouting the kind of crap above, is a different matter entirely. Over the top regulation? Are you fucking kidding?
I don't get it. If you want to be a tory, why not just be a fucking tory? Is is just that yellow matches your eyes better?
*Fortunately my vote didn't count for fuck all as Alan Whitehead kept his seat.
An LOL you got mugged by Clegg.
Not fuckin likely. The only options I have left are Labour or protest voting for minors. I just hope Labour's next incarnation aren't quite so intent on bombing small brown countries.I'm imagining you'll not make that mistake again.
Name one.
The bits of NPfIT which were paid for (PACS, N3, NHS mail) all worked. The stuff that has been more problematic (care records) is only being paid for as milestones get reached. Or not, of course.
The National Identity Scheme didn't fail: it was axed for political reasons. Actually, to appease liberty fetishists like you.
Of recent government IT projects that didn't do too well - rural payments, DWP payments platform, child maintenance, courts records management - none were multi-billion pound projects. All were enormously tricky pieces of applications development, of a kind that can often go tits up because they are unique (and of course, subject to bewildering levels of specification change along the way), but none came anywhere close to nine figures.
I'm gona be in my tiger suit, just ressurected my past art skillz and made a "TIGERS AGAINST CUTS!" sign with the Ukuncut logo on there too. Just need to find a sturdy pole before sleep, or else i'll have to tear the splintery square wood off a swappie poster haha. My soft middle-class paws demand better comfort though, frankly...
