It just doesn't make any sense whichever way you dress it up. It will be a monumental cock-up.
This government will still go ahead with it.

Just a couple of months ago we were all saying "all we know is they won't announce it ahead of a General Election"...
Our thinking is that they'll have to bring it in at some point or else admit to creating a two-tier system with the Public Sector being made more expensive to run than the Private Sector. Make your own political arguments on that one, I'm not touching it with a barge pole.
Sadly, it's easier for the media to point at contractors and shout "tax-dodgers" than it is to present a balanced argument for the benefits and challenges of contracting. Where the media leads, the politicians usually follow.
Only hope (and I hate myself a little for saying this) is serious lobbying from the front-benchers best friends who would prefer their contractor costs did not rise, thank you very much.
