And Tomorrow: Pope revealed as Catholic!
Aug. 16th, 2007 01:25 pmToday's nomination for "You Don't Say!" silly story: the Guardian reports that 38 BAE Systems staff have MOD passes.
I am shocked, shocked. Our biggest defence contractor, pre-eminent provider of weapon systems to the UK forces and supplier of numerous ongoing support contracts, actually has a number of staff who regularly visit the Ministry of Defence! It's appalling; clearly, in future, we should only meet with contractor staff over a pint in the Silver Cross or the Lord Moon of the Mall. (Cough) Like I used to.
But really...! If I'd been asked to guess the number of BAE employees with Main Building passes I would have guessed a hundred or more; 38 sounds far lower than I would have expected.
