    Miners getting shafted again

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/s...re/7777957.stm

    Solicitors making millions out of them. Just seen on the BBC News (24) that they'll have shared over 1 billion in payouts that were supposed to be awarded the miners.

    Still, they got struck off. I'm sure they're really gutted with only making 30 million out of the scam.

    Who's betting the govermin turn a blind eye, as it's all their public school bum chums involved?

    The 'best bit'? I was one of the contractors involved with developing the website for the CoalClaims DTi project. Wish I'd known how much money there was floating around to cream off, I'd have doubled my rate.

    Another 'best bit'? The company awarded the tender that I was contracting to was based next to the Buncefield oil depot that went up. They were probably blown to smithereens.

    The really 'best bit'? Lucy worked there too!

    [Not saying it was 'the Lucy', but you never know! She was a contractor, that's for sure.]
