South Lorne Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 there is obviously a lot of data but we must be able to find something better than the 1.8 billion on consultants.... ...believe me ...for the period quoted this is serious ...these guys are charged at a minimum £1,000 per day for the most junior ....for Gordos champagne socialists ...this was nothing ...after all the taxpayers were paying.....

libspero Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 (edited) got to be the world's shittiest website though, I mean it isn't 1994, most people have figured out how to make a page look half decent by now .... I think it's quite cool.. makes me feel like a hacker in a late 80s action thriller Blue on black's not the easiest on the eyes though Edit to add: if you drill down too far you get some (of what looks like) HTML code.. is that right?

libspero Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Some of the figures are mind blowing. Department of Energy Purchase of Goods & Services (excluding Consultancy Services): £164,781,496,000 Purchase of Consultancy Services: £1,778,761,000 Other expenses: £12,755,848,000 (only £12bn.. no point itemising that!) Most of the headings are pretty vague to be honest.. You're not going to get anything very 'juicy' I don't think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fallingbuzzard Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 The core treasury salaries double between Apr 09 and Mar 10. £35m a year to £70m a year. All hands to the pump? DMO salaries went down in the same period! Some of the figures are mind blowing.
