Since the whole Credit Crunch began we've heard quite a bit from politicians on all sides about greedy city bankers who are given bonuses for short term results rather than long term success. The Government and Opposition have both made the relevant noises about how such rewards are not justified.
I say this because I see that John Preiset, vetran senior civil servant at the DWP, and deputy strategic sourcing director for corporate IT at the department got a CBE in the New Years Honours List.
That would be the same DWP that pissed £300 million up the wall in three years on IT projects that it decided to cancel; and spent £2,141,410,000 on IT consultants between 2002 and 2007.
Rewards for long term success my fat post-Christmas arse!

Consistent, at least.
I know someone who worked on the team of IT consultants who had to be at the beck and call of the uncivil serpents from DWP.
Stories of incompetence, duplicity and stupidity.
"They keep changing the bloody goalposts! We can't finish the damn project, because they keep changing what they want! And now they have the balls to complain about time and budget over run!" was what he told me.
It does what it says on the box. It creates Work and no doubt Mr Preiset or will that be Sir John, gets a fat Pension.
