Ok...maybe the tendor process was rebust.......but looks like another project that looks set to be troubled! Should have let Manor manage it!
I stopped accepting invites to tender for Interserve work around 6 months ago. The company is currently valued at c£10 mill, it has debts of c£800 million.
There is no ****ing way it has any chance of operating as a viable company under that operating model

What kind of moronic snobby student **** do the HDM employ these days?
Do other parts of the country have articles mocking their local accent?
Liverpool?
Manchester?
Norwich?

Totally agree. condescending ****e. RH were all over it this morning with jolly hockey sticks brocklbank or ' brockers' as she likes to be called, hilariously trying to paraphrase in a Hull accent. And it's a Hull accent that no-one I know has.
Its teking the piss put of Hull people.
Would they paraphrase in a West Indian or Pakistani accent and then all piss themselves on how it sounds ?
To skeg?
Classic.
Codhead? Thought that was some Wessie type of insult/nickname for people from Hull and GY?
Can you imagine the Liverpool Echo publishing a similar article and quoting ''bin dipper" as some kind of affectionate local self-label?
I think not.
Everyone has the right to be offended at everything apparently. And some are.
They avoided bin dipper, but covered pretty much everything else...

Ironically, it's you who bleats on about being offended more than anyone else on here.
You’re getting all red in the face about there not being enough jokes about 'coloureds' on the telly anymore, or that Jim Davidson hasn’t been knighted yet.
Perhaps you should look a bit closer to home, today the taking offense bit came up regarding a road sign highlighting the local accent.
In the snowman joke which I copied and pasted you were the one who managed to pull out the racist link and then went on to suggest it was the sort of thing the BNP/Britain first would post.
Actually, I didn't suggest it was the sort of thing that BNP/ Britain First would post, another forum member did.
But, having said that, I've seen it shared over Twitter and Facebook by confirmed racists and neo-fascists.
