Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

'due to inadequate, inefficient but costly private sector.'

Absolutely hilarious.

If you agree or disagree with someone's point of view then why not try and answer with a message explaining why you hold your view and which does not contain abuse against the person that you are conversing with.

Giving people abuse on a public message board (or anywhere else come to that) affords the abuser no credit at all.

Just squelsh Fred - you know it makes sense!

People have been there and done that ......... Why don't you give it a try and answer him ? I would be interested to know how you get on.

"People have been there and done that" not quite true is it? Their answers have also included abuse.

Which as I say affords no credit.

Stan

As I said Why don't you give it a try and answer him ? without abuse like I did and greekman and other's.

"As I said Why don't you give it a try and answer him ? without abuse like I did and greekman and other's." To busy, And beside the point.

As said, abuse affords no credit.

The Iraq debacle and the Afghanistan adventure has done more harm to Britain's reputation, than any relief effort and it is obvious from the Terrorist risk level that this is so.

The ref "due to inadequate, inefficient but costly private sector" was a short cut and refers to the cost of outsourcing and the relative disproportionate cost of doing so.

Even the "oik" is slashing the costs of the outsourcing "contracts".

Many of the contracts with the PRIVATE SECTOR are being reviewed down in Pricing.

This should/could have been done before, but more honest pricing from the "private sector" would have made this unnecessary.

I think, if there had been more appropriate and informed management
(better trained) making the contracts, rather than cosying up of public and private sector this "overcharging" would have been prevented.

Some of the outsourcing of services from the private sector to the public service have ended up with appalling standards. (Have a look at the NHS and then various areas of IT contracting and subcontracting)

Stan

That was a pathetic answer

Aldo,

Your prime reason for posting seems to be "mainly just to argue" rather then to have an intelligent discussion with , which I have no interest in.

Intelligent discussion and Fred. Should those words be used together in the same sentence?

The Hairy one has spoken.

First it was Fred now we have his brother Stan ....... which one is the fat one ?

My point made, thank you.

Ald,

You don't have to be like the other boys and girls in your school yard.

Imitation is the poorest form of flattery.
