15th January, 2024: Ivor Novello.
It’s Monday, again.
You know that as well as I do: you’ve got a calendar, as well!
At any rate: it’s Monday, and I’m up early, again.
As I’m off to my usual weight management class.
Hopefully, I’ll’ve lost some more weight!

You — possibly — aware of the Post Office Horizon scandal, here in the UK.
To summarise?
A host of former sub-postmasters — the people who run post office branches in local shops — have been wrongfully convicted of various shades of fraud: as a result of faulty software and hardware.
Software and hardware supplied by Japanese company, Fujitsu.
It’s a scandal that’s been boiling for many years.
The reason I mention this?
Is that news has emerged: that tells us Government insiders tried to stop Fujitsu getting any more government contracts, back in the 2010s.
Going by the article I’ve linked to?
The company’s been awarded government contracts, since then.
Personally?
I think this is a story that’s going to both cause a stink.
And keep running.
